There are some incredibly smart kids that know more than the average adult about worldly topics and politics. Perhaps, when younger aged, they can write a short and simple test to show their competence in order to vote.

Yes, it should be lowered to the age of 16 - as long as individuals take a quick test to prove their competence.

no because some teens are not that introduce to political things,or have a lack of education about political thing,and "not all teenagers" but they are not serious about this topic.

 @9WJ6SYSfrom British Columbia  answered…3wks3W

I think it depends on what the person’s maturity level is like, and if they want to vote at all. I don’t think most teenagers even want to vote

 @9WGXHQLfrom Ontario  answered…3wks3W

No, if you do or do not pay taxes you should still be allowed to vote only if you are the right age to vote.

 @9VWBXVRfrom British Columbia  answered…4wks4W

No, there should be however more accessibility to current political platforms. Continual unbiased updates in schools, social platforms, signage, etc.

 @9VVJGFWfrom British Columbia  answered…4wks4W

Voting age should match military age. If you are old enough to carry a weapon in the army you are old enough to vote

 @9VMNH82from Ontario  answered…1mo1MO

Please make it so that 16 years of age can vote and have a sense of belonging when it comes to decision-making.
