Helena Konanz Conservative
“I want the committee to discuss this bill and work together. We need to talk about whether a person must be a Canadian citizen to vote for a party candidate. This affects our elections, and we should vote on it.”
“Mr. Speaker, I think quite a bit needs to be discussed at the committee level, and I look forward to our party collaborating with all parties on this. I think there should be a discussion, and not everyone agrees with me on this, of course, on whether someone needs to be a citizen to vote in the nomination process. I think it is a really interesting and important issue that should be discussed, and voted on also, because obviously, it does affect elections.”
