#VOTE16 National Youth Survey
RESULTS
In a national online survey conducted by The Centre for Global
Education (CGE), in collaboration with TakingITGlobal, and Senator
McPhedran, we explored youth's connections, values, attitudes, and
knowledge relating to lowering the voting age in Canada. Our goal was
to build awareness and to better understand the needs of Canadian
youth. Before embarking on the survey, CGE conducted four group
meetings with hundreds of youth (ages 13-19) from among 15 Canadian
schools, spanning 8 provinces and 1 territory. The results, a
representation which are presented below, contributed greatly to our
understanding of youth perspectives and to the crafting of the final
report. The #Vote16 National Youth Survey was conducted among 418
youth in Canada from November 23 to December 8, 2020.
