Seriously it really grinds my gears that the Canadian government thinks that 16 years olds are mature and intelligent enough to drive a car, work a full-time job, pay taxes, apply for a passport, and are able to live independently on their own without a parent or guardian if they want to and get married with parent consent.

But when it comes to voting the Canadian thinks 16 year olds are not mature and intelligent enough to vote. Its completely ridiculous in my opinion.

And I think parents that overfeed their child with alot of food everyday are morally a bad person and should be put in prison for child abuse

I agreed that 16 year olds should be allowed to vote until I read this sentence. Congrats on poisoning your own well.
