Whereas qualified voters of Ontario are entitled to:
(a) a vote in Municipal elections
(b) both secrecy and security when filling in their municipal ballots (Ontario Municipal Elections Act Section 49 (2))
And whereas the Government of Ontario has permitted municipal ballots to be sent by mail, thus compromising both the security of the ballot and the privacy and security of the voting process,
The Undersigned request that the Government of Ontario amend the Municipal Elections Act to disallow mail-in ballots, and require municipalities to hold walk-in elections, with sufficient polling stations to enable all voters to cast ballots, and with sufficient advance polls to accommodate voters.

It is clear by demonstration that mail-in Ballots have proven to be ineffective toward the end of facilitating democracy.

The huge number of spoiled mail in ballots in the last election was appalling. Taxpayers deserve better.

THE MAIL IN BALLOTS ARE TOO EASILY RIGGED TO GET WHATEVER RESULTS THE ELECTIONS OFFICIER WANTS FOR A FINAL ELECTIONS OUTCOME, AS THE COMPUTERS USED CAN BE PRE-PROGRAMMED FOR THOSE RESULTS

The mail in ballot does not work as there is too many ways the system can be dishonest or manipulated.
