Checkout Votemate to learn about the Canadian election

Developed by a former Inquiry Hub student, Votemate.org is a free site to help inform you about the upcoming election:

*(Great non-partisan resource for students!)

I received an update email:

Hello there!

There’s a federal election on September 20, and if that’s news to you, or you’ve just been finding the politicking, debating, and campaigning profoundly uninformative and useless, VoteMate is here to help.

We’ve created a whole new platform comparison pageallowing you to compare the platforms of each party on the issues you care about. It’s customized to you so you can focus on the information you need, and filter out everything you don’t. We’ve also got profiles on many of the candidates running this election! And we’ll be adding more features soon.

Here are the platforms you can compare:

This is fantastic for learning about candidates in your riding as well as comparing platforms and policies.

As mentioned, it’s also a great non-partisan resource to share and discuss with students. They can break into groups according to policies and platforms they care about, they can learn about candidates in their riding. They can use the rating tool 🙂😕🙁 to determine what Party they support based on platforms.

Check out Votemate.org! As I’ve shared before, I believe it is you duty as a citizen to vote… and it’s wise to make an informed choice.
