Voter Apathy

Well today is Election day in Canada!  I went out and cast my vote...did you?  I've been voting since I was 18 and it is very important to me.  If I don't vote, what right do I have to complain about the political landscape in Canada.  The answer is I wouldn't have the right to complain.

I'm sure that voter apathy exists in every democratic nation.  The largest reason people give for not voting is "One vote doesn't make a difference."  With all the elections I've followed, and participated in, I have seen riding's won by as few as 5 votes.  For those who say that one vote doesn't make a difference, consider that scenario that I've seen in the past, a riding won by just 5 votes...5 peoples votes could have changed the outcome.

Anyway...I let my voice be heard today at the polls...I hope you all will get out and cast your ballots!
