Please sign the LeadNow petition in opposition to the "Fair Elections Act". This bill would eliminate vouching and voter id cards (effectively limiting the ability of out of province/riding students from voting, as well as discouraging lower income people from voting) and would also keep Elections Canada from producing non-partisan get out the vote information. This is very concerning given already low youth voter turnout rates.
