French-only election mailouts ‘effectively suppressing the vote’ | The Corner Booth

Dela

This week, it was revealed for the first time in a provincial campaign, election guides and notices are being mailed only in French.


Voters seeking English versions will instead be directed to the Élections Québec website, either directly or through a QR code printed on the French documents. But around one in five Quebecers 75 and older do not own a smartphone, computer or tablet.


Lawyers Frédéric Bérard and Eric Maldoff joined hosts Bill Brownstein and Aaron Rand on this week’s episode of The Corner Booth from Snowdon Deli. Maldoff is part of a group of lawyers planning to file legal action against the provincial government.
