I have not. I know that it’s in my house, and I know I have to fill it out, but I haven’t done it yet. I will do it. But because there is the strike going on with the post office, I don’t know whether it’s going to go through or not. And I haven’t actually looked into it. But I’m going to do it.

Corbin Pawer

Banking/student

I have. I dropped it off yesterday at Lansdowne (post office). I think if you have a complaint about the system or the way that things are run, this is your opportunity to air your concerns and let your voice be heard. And it’s our responsibility in a democratic society to share our opinion and do our part.

Emma Sun

Student

I haven’t, but I intend to. I don’t really know much about it. I still haven’t reviewed the pros and cons of the system we have now and the system that they are proposing. I’m still not sure what my stance is yet.

Peter Chen

Border officer

Yes I have. I delivered it three days ago. I think it’s important for people to do that, to help the government get more information from the residents over here.

Jing Liu

Nurse

No. I’m a U.S. citizen. I’m here visiting. But I think everyone should vote in the referendum. It’s every citizen’s right and responsibility.  If you don’t vote, your voice cannot be heard; if you don’t vote, you have no right to complain about the system or rules.
