I think that's a great question, and I thank you for asking it.
Yes, I have. I have to say that it raises challenges.
The Canada Elections Act, as it currently stands, doesn't allow for faces to be added to ballots. However, I think that option should be explored in the longer term.
In that case, I would also try the pilot project formula, but that project would not necessarily result in amendments to the act. We would suggest adding faces to the signs at the polling stations to see how that works.
Operational considerations should also be taken into account, including the production of candidates' images within a fairly strict time frame. We also have to think about the quality of those images. Some candidates may have reservations.
So that would be something we would want to experiment with. It won't be for the next election, but I would certainly do a pilot first, again, using faces on signs rather than on the ballot. We could see if there are lessons to be learned and go from there.
