Specific initiatives include advertising campaigns with information-based radio and print ads available in 25 heritage languages including Inukitut; website-based voter information guides available in 27 heritage languages; targeted communications (including information bulletins and other multi-language materials made available to 573 ethno-cultural associations); and the use of Community Relations Officers in federal elections to disseminate voter information to ethno-cultural communities. Canada would be pleased to share other examples of efforts to reduce barriers to participation of minorities with participants. Thank you Madame Chair.
