Explaining elections to young people: Check out this new resource!

19 September 2022

Categories: Worth exploring

Even if they can’t vote yet, young people still have questions about what happens during elections. Les As de l’info is a website that can help them find the answers. It includes a host of articles written especially for them. 

This new resource is designed to explain current events to young people aged 8 to 12. A special feature on elections is currently available to help them follow the election campaign. Some of the educational content, including a video on the voting process, was prepared in collaboration with Élections Québec. 

The site also includes a section for teachers (“Pour les profs”) that contains numerous resources for classroom use. Various activities are available for introducing students to key aspects of our democracy during this election period.

The Charter of the French language and its regulations govern the consultation of English-language content.
