Seriously it really grinds my gears that the Canadian government thinks that 16 years olds are mature and intelligent enough to drive a car, work a full-time job, pay taxes, apply for a passport, and are able to live independently on their own without a parent or guardian if they want to and get married with parent consent.

But when it comes to voting the Canadian thinks 16 year olds are not mature and intelligent enough to vote. Its completely ridiculous in my opinion.

    I think that if a guardian attests that their 16 year old is ready to vote, they should be allowed to.

    I feel that people who don’t agree with the child’s politics may not allow them to vote.

      That’s a risk. Yeah I don’t really know why you’d need a parental attestation. Forget that part.
