Episode 5: A Vote - Tober Special

Written By Andrea McCoy

It's October and it's time to vote!! Starting in the Province of BC this October 19, the Canadian Provincial elections are among us. And it is not without surprise that we are pro-voting!

What is the engagement at the polls for New Canadian voters? And what even are the political parties? Is the Green Party only about climate change? Which party reflects the majority of Canadians? What demographic of people do Conservatives want to provide tax cuts for? And can the Liberal Party keep their promises?

Join us as we get political and honest. We'll detail the various political parties in Canada, focusing on their stances on Indigenous issues, human rights and gender equality. We'll highlight the importance of choosing leaders who represent the collective good over individual privilege and stress the importance that your vote really does count.

We won’t tell you who to vote for but we will stress the importance to think of the collective good when you go to the ballot. And just in case you still think your vote doesn’t matter, learn about the legal requirements for those riding their sleigh in Ontario. EVERYTHING is affected by politics. Engage and go out and vote!
