Yes, anyone who pays taxes and passes a basic test demonstrating understanding of politics should be allowed to vote
@8X8FXZ93yrs3Y
yes, it should be lowered to 17 ish
@8VN6GJB4yrs4Y
@8V8Z68P4yrs4Y
I believe Canadian citizens aged 16 and over should be allowed to vote.
@8V2H4LH4yrs4Y
Yes, tax payers able to demonstrate their understanding of politics through a basic test should be able to participate.
@8THSDYH4yrs4Y
Yes, Maybe they can lower the age to 17 instead of 18, but also no because, girls would just pick someone like Trudeau because to them he is cute.
Yes, voters age 16 and up should have the right to vote
Yes voters under 18 just have to pass a basic test of political
@8QR7G7V4yrs4Y
No because before voting you must become more mature and more independent in order to not treat an election like a joke, a good example of what happens when you treat and election like a joke is Donald trump who is not only a tax evader and racist but also a rapist and that absolutely makes me sick to my stomach
@8QLZ6T74yrs4Y
It should be lowered, but a baseline test should be administered to all voters
@8QBPS524yrs4Y
depending on the circumstances. in america, the reelection of trump would’ve hurt/affected LGBT/POC and their communities. minors were watching their rights be debated. in an instance like that, i think the vote should be lowered to 16. plus my generation seems to understand politics and the importance of having good representatives
@8QB4ZLN4yrs4Y
No but elderly should not be allowed to vote because their opinions are outdated
@8PXX99S4yrs4Y
You should be able to vote at 16
@8PR797M4yrs4Y
I feel like it depends on what they think. But an appropriate age in my opinion is 18 and above. Maybe 16.
@8PK9B8F4yrs4Y
No, but only because we aren’t properly educated on democracy and all matters that surround it.
@8PK87HQ4yrs4Y
Yes. Age is not a sign of maturity. We should give opportunities to younger and involved citizens.
@8KJM4TX4yrs4Y
Yes, this should be put into highschool curriculum and students should be able to vote after graduation
@8JGYPSV4yrs4Y
Yes, we should give high school students a chance to vote while they're going to school and can learn what it means
@98QNBF4New Democratic2yrs2Y
Yes, but there should be a basic test demonstrating one’s understanding of politics for anyone able to vote.
for local elections only 14 and up should he able to vote
@8DKJQP75yrs5Y
It should be 16 but people under 19 should have to pass a test proving that they are knowledgable on the subject.
Deleted4yrs4Y
Yes, I would prefer individuals as young as 15 to be allowed to vote with a parent or guardian's permission.
@7PV36BB4yrs4Y
Leave it up to the states but set the range at 16-18
