There’s a lot of talk about voter turnout ahead of Canada’s upcoming federal election, especially when it comes to young Canadians. But low turnout isn’t always an indicator of indifference. Sometimes, it’s a signal that people feel left out.

Reusch spoke at The Walrus Talks Wellbeing in Quebec City on June 2, 2019.
