I researched the Canadian election system today and learned about the three simple steps to voting: registering, finding a polling station, and voting. Despite the relative simplicity and ease of the process, I believe there is still room for improvement. For example, introducing a secure online voting system, extending early voting hours, and providing free transportation could make voting more convenient. An increase in voter education programs could also help increase public turnout and participation. Such improvements would make elections fairer and promote greater citizen participation in the democratic process.

Today I studied the Canadian justice system and learned about the duties and importance of the courts. The impartiality of judges ensures that decisions are fair and the public trust is maintained. The Supreme Court, led by the Chief Justice, guarantees the proper application of the law. Despite the possibility of wrongful convictions, overall the Canadian justice system fairly protects the rights and freedoms of citizens through the Charter and review mechanisms.
