Should Canada lower the voting age to 16?

We have gotten an onslaught of feedback from the CFRA textboard following a fiery conversation with Liberal MP Jenna Sudds. The former councillor is calling out the City of Ottawa for a ‘poorly handled’ plan and a lack of consultation in regards to the incoming ‘sprung structures’. Kristy Cameron examines some of that feedback in Hour 4. Plus, we deliver the latest breaking news, right here on CFRA’s Ottawa Now.

Hour 4 of Ottawa Now for Fri. November 15th, 2024

A group of teens are trying to get Toronto city councillors invested into a voting age change. Well, after clearing one major hurdle this week, they have at least generated a serious conversation with Ontario’s biggest city leaders. Should the rest of Canada take the leap of faith and lower the voting age to 16? Kristy Cameron sifts through the textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Meantime, a former Ottawa city councillor is taking aim at City Hall over what she calls a lack of consultation. This is in regards to a series of planned ‘sprung structures’ that are expected to be ready sometime next year. Liberal MP Jenna Sudds vents her frustrations in Hour 3.

Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Fri. November 15th, 2024

Friday at 12:01am was the deadline for Canada Post to negotiate a deal with the Canadian Union of Postal Workers. Sadly, that didn’t happen, and we have a labour dispute on our hands. It also comes at an awful time for online shoppers, with Black Friday and Christmas fast approaching. We deliver the bigger picture with the help of Rafael Gomez, a University of Toronto professor who teaches lessons on labour relations and various bargaining processes. Meantime, if you want to distract yourself from all the chaos, perhaps a trip to the movie theatres will do the trick. Matt Demers has got you covered in Hour 2 with his Weekly Movie Picks!
