Who should vote?

“All Canadian citizens should vote. I feel that exploring mandatory voting and improving education around the privilege that we have to freely vote, as Canadians living in a liberal democracy, needs to be more than a half credit in grade 10. My own child missed this course during the pandemic, however, he has voted at every opportunity since turning 18. I would take my son with me whenever I voted in a municipal, provincial, or federal election to try to instill in him how important it is to participate and have a voice by voting in all elections.” — D. Minardi

“Everyone above voting age (18) that has made legitimate efforts to become informed on the issues involved. I do not agree with enfranchisement of persons under the age of majority nor making voting mandatory.” — TJ Hiller

“Adults 18 years and older, and a Canadian citizen” — K. Jones

“Canadian citizens who are 18 years old or who have graduated from high school.” — K. Marshall

“Everyone should vote but only if they read the platforms before doing so. Having said that, the platforms lately often seem to be fiction, so holding elected representatives accountable is critical and the media needs to help with that.” — P. Colerick
