China, Russia, Iran.
Why would it be anyone else.
The USA is the largest source of foreign interference in Canadian politics by far, but sure, those guys as well.
Don’t misunderstand me, I know very well the USA can interfere with our stuff, they do it on a daily basis. They surely do it to every country they can as well.
We, Canadians, probably interfere or at least try to, in other countries too.
What I meant is the more actors there are, the more difficult it is to break free from it.
Glad we still have elections on paper, somewhat safer than electronic ones.

Is that a prevalent concept in Canada? The way I see it cryptography researchers already figured out the math to make electronic voting safer than paper, it’s just a matter of reform (like anything politics).
Is [triple-counted paper ballots] a prevalent concept in Canada?
Yeah, it is. Because it works really well.

No, it’s not. And the math isn’t the problem. Our paper elections have scrutiny like open-source code, and voting machine code does not. Issues are spotted at vastly different rates, and not how you’d think without understanding the workings of both.
Also it’s far, far less expensive to set up a polling station. We can do it in a morning, run an election all day - one day - and then shut it down after the count and we’re out of there.
I see. Thanks for sharing. I come from a place that uses electronic voting without any major issues so from my point of view this reluctance is a bit of a mystery. But now at least I know the arguments that float around the topic.
FTA:
India and Pakistan
Probably other countries too. Not sure why you think it’d be limited to China, Russia, and Iran.
Edit; Not limited to but they were the ones listed when I first opened the article. Sorry if I misread and/or if they updated the article afterwards.
there was no indication Dong knew what was going on
It took an inquiry to figure that out?
