The U.K. is lowering its voting age to 16. Should Canada follow suit?

The U.K. government announced Thursday that it will be lowering the voting age from 18 to 16, in time for its next general election. The move is encouraging for advocates who want to see the same change made in Canada.

“It’s a step that should have been done a long time ago,” Jaden Braves, CEO of Young Politicians of Canada, a Toronto-based non-profit, told CBC News.

“I think it’s very unfortunate that Canada could not be a leader within this discussion.”


What kind of rent seeking asshole becomes the CEO of Young Politicians Of Canada?
