RIEP believes that being an informed voter is crucial to the health of our Canadian democracy.
When voters are knowledgeable about the candidates, policies, and issues on the ballot, they are better equipped to make decisions that align with their values and the needs of their communities. Informed voting helps ensure that elected leaders are accountable and representative of the public’s interests, rather than being chosen based on personality or misinformation.
Responses to these questions are being published widely in advance of the election to help citizens of these communities make informed voting decisions.
