Election

Today is election day in Canada. I was up bright and early to vote.

What saddens me is, most people I speak to do not take the time to vote. What took me a short 4 minutes, from walking into my polling station to walking out the door, is considered a waste of time to so many Canadians. They tell me they are far too busy to care about politics. Yet in turn, these people end up complaining about the Canadian government. I don't know about you, but to me that sounds rather ironic.

My theory on voting is, a lot of people gave up their lives in order for us to have the ability to vote. To not vote dishonours their sacrifice.

We live in such a wonderful country. Vote. It literally takes minutes.

Polls close at 9:30 p.m.
