Woman shocked non-Canadian partner got a voting card
When Christine Benoit opened her mailbox Thursday afternoon, she was shocked to see a certain piece of mail with her spouse’s name “Belarmino Jose Cordeiro” typed as the recipient in upper case letters.
It was a voting card for her partner for the upcoming federal election sent by Elections Canada — the only problem is, Cordeiro isn’t a Canadian citizen.
“I was upset,” said Benoit, Cordeiro’s partner of eight years.
“I was angry. I thought sure, yes, he’s a hardworking taxpayer but he’s not a citizen. He doesn’t have the right.”
