Lest you allow your life to be controlled by the whims of whoever decides to vote. Average voting age must come down!

Federal elections are not the most important

Municipal elections affect your immediate vicinity (your electoral district) and there ARE good people trying to run. Multiple municipalities on the same page = stronger political power.

Provincial elections are the root of many problems you may assume are the responsibility of the federal government. This includes a ton of control over healthcare, housing, tax distribution.

Federal elections should be self explanatory, obviously vote in them. We are not locked in a quasi two-party system! if you believe this you are inadvertently sealing your own depressing fate.

Visit the voting calendar to see upcoming elections and dates. If your 76 year old grandma can do it, you can do it!

VOTE FOR WHOEVER YOU WANT TO. IF YOU DO DO NOT VOTE IN YOUR ELECTIONS, I BELIEVE YOU ARE A COWARDLY AND SHAMEFUL CANADIAN AND A RECKLESS CITIZEN

    Yeah maybe. I posted on main because this is where every Canadian (and those who simply prefer the lemmy.ca instance) come to by default.

    Lemmy brings in people with a reason for being here, and many which may be political.

    Admins are free to remove it themselves or ask me to delete at their discretion, of course!!
