Why Is it Important to Vote?

In 2021, young voters made up 1 in 5 of all eligible voters in Canada, and several ridings came down to only a few hundred votes.

We will decide this federal election. Every vote contributes to shaping the policies that affect our daily lives—from education and housing to employment and the environment.

Your voice matters, so make it heard!
