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?
