Bill S-213 proposes to amend the Canada Elections Act to include the collection of demographic information from voters. This initiative aims to enhance the existing database and provide more detailed information on the demographic composition of the Canadian electorate.

The main provisions of the bill include adding new sections to the Canada Elections Act, which would require election officials to collect information such as age, gender, and ethnic origin of voters. This data would be collected anonymously to respect individuals' privacy.

The Canada Elections Act would be amended to incorporate these new data collection requirements. This would involve adjustments in election management processes and training for election officers.

Canadian voters would be directly affected by these changes, as they would be asked to provide demographic information during elections. Election officials and policymakers would use this data to better understand electoral dynamics and tailor public policies accordingly.
