In Alberta, concerns have been voiced regarding the regulations surrounding mail-in ballot deliveries, particularly in the context of an upcoming separation referendum. A prominent figure in these discussions is Alberta's former top elections official, who argues that the current rules are creating barriers for voters. He claims that there exists a provision that would allow mail-in ballots to be delivered in person; however, the present chief electoral officer has chosen not to utilise this option. This decision has left some voters questioning their ability to participate in the election process. The former election official specifically highlighted his personal situation, stating that he feels he has effectively lost his right to vote due to the restrictions in place.
