Yes, any citizen that pays taxes should be required to pass a test demonstrating their understanding of politics to vote

 @B2XCC2Lfrom Alberta  answered…2mos2MO

Individuals under the age of 18 should not be able to vote as if they were of age however, we should implement a way for young peoples voices to have a say in politics. Such as a school collective vote.

I say yes, it should be lowered to 16, many old people say that young adults live in the moment, yes that is somewhat true, we also don't want to be completely screwed over because older people made poor decisions that will now hinder our lives

 @9FBJ56Dfrom Alberta  answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, as long as they have a job, and can drive. They also would have to lower the age for the drivers test of Canada.

 @8XZMDGYfrom Alberta  answered…3yrs3Y

Yes, but only if voters under the age of 21 complete a government test varifying their understanding of the political system and the functioning of elections.

 @8VVD7Z4from Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

16 is a good age, as they learn in high school the importance of politics

 @8VVB9NJNew Democraticfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

The right to vote should depend on maturity and knowledge as opposed to age.

 @8VJ33RXfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes. To 17. Younger people who are learning this in school would be more likely to vote and continue voting.

 @8VGQNCPfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, anyone that passes a basic test understanding politics should be allowed to vote

 @8VG6MFSfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

In my opinion, as soon as a citizen takes part in social life (like working, volunteering), they shouls have the right to pass a basic test demonstrating their understanding of politics in order to vote. If they pass, they're good to vote.
P.S. In naddition, they can pass this test every time before voting as long as they enter a voting age

 @8PK87HQfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes. Age is not a sign of maturity. We should give opportunities to younger and involved citizens.

 @8VZ94YCfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, but voters under the age of 18 should pass a basic test demonstrating their understanding of politics in order to vote.
