In this episode, we’re joined by independent Manitoba Senator Marilou McPhedran, who has introduced legislation to lower Canada’s voting age to 16. We discuss why the change is needed, how other countries are leading the way, and how each of us can help in this effort to make our democracy better reflect all its citizens.
