Electoral District (2011):
Voting age should be lowered to 16, they have a right to purchase a vehicle at that age so why not go all out in the consent
I think everyone who is over 16 should be allowed to vote. All ages should have to show that they have some understanding of what the parties stand for and why they support their party so they are not just voting the same as other people.

16 is a good age, as they learn in high school the importance of politics
Yes, any citizen who knows the political world should be allowed to vote
I'm indifferent to the matter. As long as prospective voter is educated and informed enough on key concerns being discussed during election time.
I feel that it should be taught neutrally in schools but not raised
@8VDBBDPConservative4yrs4Y
No, it should be raised to age 21 as well as taxation only coming into effect at age 21
Yes, voters age 16 and up should have the right to vote
@8T3S42M4yrs4Y
any citizen that pays taxs should be able to vote, children under the age of 16 do not need to vote
It really depends on the maturity level of the citizen themself, I feel the lowest should/could be around 16-17. But I feel like 18 is a reasonable age.
Yes, and everyone should pass a basic test demonstrating their understanding of politics in order to vote.
@8RFSF344yrs4Y
Depending on circumstance yes
Abolish it and create a basic test demonstrating their understanding of politics for anyone residing in Canada.
@saides9908Green4yrs4Y
Yes, But only after passing the high school Civics and Careers class
@8QLZ6T74yrs4Y
It should be lowered, but a baseline test should be administered to all voters
No, and I believe there should be a voter age cap for those older then the the average life expectancy.
@8PGPC6P4yrs4Y
yes and v[oters should be required to pass a basic test demonstrating their understanding of politics in order to vote
@8P93LLZ4yrs4Y
Yes, some kids are smart enough to choose the right person to vote.
@Jatzuyu4yrs4Y
No, any lower will be bad as they will not be mature enough.
@8K6F8R24yrs4Y
yes any person from the age 15 and up should be able to vote but ban all ****** s from voting in the damn country
Not really unless they have a understanding
Yes, but voters should be required to pass a basic test demonstrating their understanding of politics to vote until age 20
@93Q8Q6N3yrs3Y
Yes, the voters need to show a good understanding of politics and reasoning for their voting choices
18 unless 17 and and university but have late birthday
Yes, but this is a non-issue at this time.
@8FMPX5H5yrs5Y
The min. age is fine, but there should be a cap on the voting age.
