Voting

The Canadian Learning Trust encourages every Canadian citizen to be an informed visitor. It's part of what makes a Learning Canada. Reading reliable newspapers is a good way to be informed about the election. Here are 3 articles you might find of use as you prepare to vote. 

This snap election was called by Mark Carney after he was elected leader of the Liberal Party and became prime minister last month following Justin Trudeau’s resignation. While federal elections are typically held every four years, they can be called at any time. In this instance, Carney recommended dissolving Parliament to address pressing issues, including trade tensions with the United States. If he hadn’t called an election, he would have likely faced a no-confidence vote when Parliament returned, which would have triggered an election.

Learning to Vote

Voting in Canada

One of the most important things to do as a Canadian is to communicate well with other Canadians. This site will help you find out where to go to learn to speak, to read, to write in both official languages, English and French. This will be added to regularly so keep watching/ This learning will result in an  understanding of the cultures and laws in Canada. Another important part of being Canadian is to vote at the local, provincial and federal level. That means voting when there is an election called for the town or city where you live, the province or the federal level. There are other elections too, such as for Chief and Council on a first Nations. Voting is both a right and a responsibility and doing them well means learning about the voting process. Voting is basic to democracy, the system of governance used in Canada. If it’s your first time voting as a newly adult Canadian, check out the Vote on Campus link: https://www.elections.ca/content.aspx?section=vot&dir=bkg&document=campu&lang=e 

The legal age is completely different from the age of majority. It is an age where you are allowed to do a certain activity or have a certain responsibility. For example, the legal age in Ontario to purchase alcohol is 19, and it is 16 to get a driver’s license. When you are at either 18 or 19 years of age, you can vote because you are at the age of majority.
