Should the Voting Age in Canada Change?

Name the target outcome


Begin by identifying the target outcome in a few words and press Enter.

For example, you might be aiming to increase production capacity, so this would be your target outcome.

Pre-conditions and actions

This is the tree of conditions and actions that lead towards the target status, so is drawn on the left of the map. Actions flow from left to right.

Creating the plan


Now we are ready to work backwards from 'Should the Voting Age in Canada Change?' towards the current situation, trying to create a chain of conditions and actions to join them up.

The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms must be amended in order to facilitate the fact that 16 year olds and up will be able to vote instead

This amendment must be passed by Parliament

Add a condition or action before 'The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms must be amended in order to facilitate the fact that 16 year olds and up will be able to vote instead'


What needs to be done or in place before you can reach 'The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms must be amended in order to facilitate the fact that 16 year olds and up will be able to vote instead'? What are the pre-requisites or conditions of reaching this position?
If this position is reachable from the current situation, then you can write in the next action instead.
If 'The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms must be amended in order to facilitate the fact that 16 year olds and up will be able to vote instead' is already an action that can be done, then just press Enter.

Example: if 'Trained operators' is an intermediate step, then the pre-requisites could be:

• Find suitable training
• Identify staff for training
• Schedule training

Amendment must be proposed

Add a condition or action before 'This amendment must be passed by Parliament'


What needs to be done or in place before you can reach 'This amendment must be passed by Parliament'? What are the pre-requisites or conditions of reaching this position? If this position is reachable from the current situation, then you can write in the next action instead.

If 'This amendment must be passed by Parliament' is already an action that can be done, then just press Enter.

Amendment must be written

Add a condition or action before 'Amendment must be proposed'


What needs to be done or in place before you can reach 'Amendment must be proposed'? What are the pre-requisites or conditions of reaching this position? If this position is reachable from the current situation, then you can write in the next action instead.

If 'Amendment must be proposed' is already an action that can be done, then just press Enter.

Youth must be able to prove that they are knowledgeable about the current politics enough to vote (which should be a good rule for everyone!)

Add a condition before 'Should the Voting Age in Canada Change?'


What needs to be in place before you can reach 'Should the Voting Age in Canada Change?'? What are the pre-requisites or conditions of reaching this position?
Add a short description of something that must be put in place or a condition that must exist before you can reach 'Should the Voting Age in Canada Change?'. Remember to observe the constraints that you listed.

Example: if you need to increase production capacity, then the kinds of things that need to be in place could include:

• Higher speed production equipment
• Trained operators
• An increased supply of components

Like the G1 test, minors must earn the right to vote, proving they have basic knowledge, therefore these tests would have to be written by someone

Add a condition or action before 'Youth must be able to prove that they are knowledgeable about the current politics enough to vote (which should be a good rule for everyone!)'

Information must be collected to write the minor voters test

Constraints

The constraints on what you can do to move from the current situation to the target situation

What are the constraints?


When taking action to move from where you are now to where you want to be, there will always be some sort of constraints to think about. Any planned actions must meet these constraints.

Adults believe that youth are easily persuaded

Adults think youth do not consider all options/opinons

Adults think youth are irresponsible

Add a constraint


Add a constraint that limits what you can do in moving from the current situation to the target situation. A constraint may be:

• Time limits
• Cost & resource limits
• Technological limits
• Performance limits
• Policies, regulations or laws
• The interests of other stakeholders

Current situation

Where are you now?

Means-end analysis tries to close the gap between where you are now and where you want to be.

Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms states that right to vote or stand for election is limited to persons 18 years of age or older

Currently a lot of teenagers interested in politics who do not get this right until they turn 18 years of age.

Currently a large percentage of the population not using their right to vote

Benefits of this change

This would give young people the opportunity to learn more about our country, her interests and problems. This could inspire a new generation of future Canadian diplomats and leaders.

This would eradicate the high levels of apathy for voting in our nation

This would allow the youth to rightfully vote for who they believe should not just run the country, but who they feel should be able to make important decisions for them
