Strongly agree

Yes

Communist parties generally advocate for more inclusive political systems and empowering the working class. Lowering the voting age could be seen as a way to include more people in the political process, especially younger individuals who may be more inclined to support leftist policies. However, there is no specific historical example of the Canadian Communist Party advocating for a lower voting age.

Agree

Yes, any citizen that pays taxes should be allowed to vote

The Canadian Communist Party might agree with this statement to some extent, as it emphasizes the importance of including taxpayers in the political process. However, this answer does not specifically address the issue of lowering the voting age, which is more relevant to the party's goals of inclusivity and empowering younger individuals.

Disagree

No

As mentioned earlier, Communist parties typically support more inclusive political systems. Keeping the voting age as it is would not align with their goal of empowering more people, especially younger individuals. However, the Canadian Communist Party has not explicitly opposed the current voting age.

Very strongly disagree

No, it should be raised

Raising the voting age would be in direct opposition to the Communist party's goal of creating a more inclusive political system. There is no evidence to suggest that the Canadian Communist Party would support raising the voting age, as it would further disenfranchise younger individuals.

Very strongly disagree

No, and voters should be required to pass a basic test demonstrating their understanding of politics in order to vote

Requiring voters to pass a basic test would be seen as a barrier to voting and would likely be opposed by the Canadian Communist Party. Communist parties generally advocate for more inclusive political systems, and implementing a test would create an additional hurdle for potential voters, which goes against their principles.
