Show Notes

Should Canada lower the voting age to 16?

TPL Media’s Mike Wixson sits down with Jerry and Jason from Vote16 to unpack the movement, the data, and the real-world momentum across Canada and abroad. We cover what Elections Canada’s research says about youth engagement, how school-age voting could change civic literacy, where it’s already working internationally, and what actually needs to happen in Parliament and provincial legislatures to make it law.

Guests: Jerry & Jason — Vote16 advocates (Twin Talk Politics)

Question of the day: Would letting 16-year-olds vote increase accountability and civic engagement—or just lower the bar?
