Does any country require proof? In Canada you just need an ID that confirms your name and address. No proof of citizenship is necessary. It’s illegal for a non citizen to vote, but proof isn’t necessary in order to vote.

The reason proof isn’t required is because Canada doesn’t issue proof of citizenship to all citizens. How can the government require people provide proof of citizenship if the government doesn’t ensure all citizens have proof of citizenship?
