Our Class ELECTION

This year the class was involved in "Student Vote". We subscribed to to Elections Canada and got a package that included posters, voting ballot screen, ballots and a ballot box. Today we watched TV commercials from each of the 3 main parties involved in the election. We discussed their platforms and elections techniques. Many enlightening ideas were brought up by the students.




We also used the ballots that they provided and held our own election to see how our results would compare to our "York South-Weston Region" and the province.
















We created a chart with the results!

Progressive Conservatives / Liberals / NDP / Green / Freedom Party
