Sorry if I'm hijacking this thread but you can use a pen to vote. Pencils are provided in the voting area because they are more reliable (less ways to fail) and probably because they're cheaper to purchase in bulk. Also, not many people steal pencils. A friend of mine worked the past Federal Election as a polling clerk in an area with a large Russian-Canadian population. He said few asked for a pen because they said their marks would be erased when they voted in Russia. They were given a pen.
Yes, you guys right. I checked and I can vote with pen if I bring one.
But liberals won, so I can blame them about this law . If the other party won I'll blame them.
Oldjones without arguing with you I think there is connection.
What I wanted to say, if a bank could check my personal safety deposit box without my knowledge ( and that's law is impossible without government permission) they could change my vote, what I did with pencil, without my knowledge. They don't need my agreement, right?
It would be great if I have a choice there. But just pencil was available. In bulk, disposable pens are less than 5 cents. If every 4th. Canadian stole 1 ( what can't be true except if all of us are politicians
) maybe 4 million will disappear. It cost 120K for Canada. What is nothing against that amount what they spend for the rally or just in the banquet night after the election. I don't trust any politician, they are the biggest crocks on the planet, and many people in the same shoes. Why I have to trust them with a pencil vote, what is the most easiest to forge? It's not right! Just for my two cents!
