Voting at 16? Meet the Toronto teens leading the charge to lower city’s voting age

 

A group of Toronto teens are celebrating after the city passed a motion to investigate the idea of lowering the voting age for city polling from 18 to 16.

The teens say the win is the first step in a larger movement to lower Canada’s voting age to 16.
