Making Civics Real: Canada's #Vote16 Campaign.
Presenter
Dave Meslin
Vote16.ca
Momentum is building across Canada, to lower the voting age to 16. One of the strongest arguments in favour of this change is that it would bring the voting age into alignment with Grade 12 civics curriculum. Evidence suggests that voting during high school years is more likely to create positive voting habits, in comparison to post-secondary campus voting. Our campaign would like to connect with civics teachers and solicit your ideas, feedback and suggestions!
