Montreal latest Canadian city to consider granting voting rights to non-citizens Poll Yes A man arrives at a polling station to cast his ballot in the Montreal municipal elections in Montreal, Sunday, Nov. 1, 2009. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Graham Hughes Montreal officials are looking into extending voting rights to more than 100,000 non-citizens in order to better integrate immigrants and encourage more racialized people to participate in municipal politics. The idea isn’t new: for years, Canadian cities such as Toronto, Vancouver and Saint John, N.B., have debated or proposed giving the vote to permanent residents – but none have succeeded in convincing provincial or federal governments to modify citizenship and voting laws.
