Many Canadians, 176 in fact, were not able to vote in the last election. This is a real problem for future voters. What are we going to do about it here? We are going to work together to make sure everyone in Canada can vote.</p>",

Beaucoup de Canadiens, pendant la derni\u00e8re \u00e9lection, au nombre de 176, n'ont pas pu voter. C'est vraiment un probl\u00e8me pour les futurs \u00e9lecteurs. Qu'allons-nous faire \u00e0 la Chambre? Nous allons travailler ensemble pour que tout le monde au Canada puisse voter.</p>"
