À propos de cet audio

What if voting didn’t feel like homework? What if democracy came with a playlist?


100 Reasons to Vote isn’t your typical civics class. It’s a student-led podcast created by three women who decided to stop doomscrolling and start digging:
Vaishnavi Sriparan and Shaaranki Kulenthirarasa, two Gen Z journalism majors who think democracy deserves better PR, and Pamela Hackett, a former CEO turned full-time journalism student.


We’re here to ask better questions, challenge broken systems, and flip the script on political confusion. From the ballot box to the backbenchers, we explore and ask why voting still matters — even when it feels like no one’s listening.


"Democracy is messy," and some feel, it's never been messier. And in that mess, people can get lost and lose their motivation to vote. Join us in our drive to get everyone to use their democratic right - and vote.

    As a Gen Z male watching the federal election, Garrett has one major message to politicians: "Just shut up about your rivals. Don't tell me why they're awful, tell me why you're better." But if you're a politician, he also has a list of other things you might care to listen to. And if you're not a politician, listen anyway. Garrett has a view on politics and the election we can all learn from.

    In this episode, Garrett, Vaishnavi, and Pam discuss the Canadian federal election through the eyes of Gen Z.
