Some great stuff to help you have conversations with individuals about voting…
- It’s your right to vote.
- It’s your responsibility to vote.
- It’s your right to choose who you feel will best represent you in Canada’s next government.
- It’s your responsibility to learn about voting, about the candidates in your riding, and about the issues that are important to you and people like you.
The information below can help with answering questions you might have about the voting process. You will find Inclusion Canada’s summary of issues that are important to Canadians with disabilities. InclusionBC’s #IAmVoting info package and participation guide – plain language. List of candidates for all Vancouver Island ridings. And a Federal Election section where you can learn about the parties in a little bit more detail.
