"Elections Nova Scotia has signed a contract with an international corporation specializing in online voting software to develop a platform ahead of the next provincial election.
The contract with Scytl Canada Inc. includes $150,000 to develop the platform and $200,000 for operations during an election. It's expected the system's development will take about a year.
Amendments to the Elections Act in 2021 allowed for the use of internet voting for military members stationed outside Nova Scotia during an election.
Chief electoral officer Dorothy Rice hopes the platform will improve a situation for people who, in the past, felt excluded from the voting process and "that they will be engaged with the electoral process and democracy," she said in an interview.
Rice said the system would be evaluated following the next election in 2025, but so far there have not been talks about expanding access beyond military members.
"There may be some opportunities for further developments there, but not at this point in time. Those ideas have not been floated."
With its main office in Barcelona, Scytl has been developing internet voting software for 20 years. Its systems have been used in the United States, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Spain and Australia. Scytl has also designed platforms for municipal elections in Canada, including for the Halifax Regional Municipality and the cities of Vaughan and Markham in Ontario."

xkcd: Voting Software
There are lots of very smart people doing fascinating work on cryptographic voting protocols. We should be funding and encouraging them, and doing all our elections with paper ballots until everyone currently working in that field has retired.
A Tory mp just suggested a voting app for future general elections, here is an old video from Tom Scott about why that is an awful awful idea

"Former Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro is reportedly sitting down with Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard to demonstrate how Venezuelan voting machines and software have been tampering with American elections on behalf of the Democratic Party. He is prepared to testify against all of the players who helped RIG the 2020 presidential election in exchange for diplomatic immunity. Maduro is only the tip of the iceberg and a pawn on President Trump's chess board... Lots of ELECTION-STEALING CROOKS are going to bed very nervous".
