I can't believe so many people are this ignorant! And they admitted it to a newspaper reporter!

In light of this information, I propose that everyone should have to take a brief test before voting. Anyone who passes the test, regardless of age, would be allowed to vote.

The questions on this test are as follows. (This one is on the provincial level, it can be altered for other levels of government)

1. Name the current premier and the current leader of the opposition
2. Name two political parties and the leaders of those parties
3. Name two candidates in your riding and their party affiliations
4. Name one issue in this election, and briefly describe any candidate's or party's stance on that issue.
