Canadian PRs Cannot Vote For MLAs
So i’ve been in Canada for 10 yrs now and with the by election a few days ago, I thought i would do my part as a Permanent Resident and go vote. Now when i got my Permanent Residency many years ago, i was told i cannot vote for provincial only but i had a rude surprised. I was told rudely by a big woman who was manning the poll that i am not a Canadian..!!!! mannnn!! i mean it’s ok.. if i cannot vote but to tell me off so rudely – mannnn..!! so i said that’s ok.. and took my tiger direct coupons and went shopping instead. What i found really strange was – i could vote for the town councils and for the Premier but i can’t vote for MLAs??? darn weird !!!
So my customers asked me if i was going to be a Canadian citizen anytime soon..?? Well, truth be told, i would rather keep my Singapore citizenship because it’s a lot safer to keep it this way – at the rate things are going – i better have a back up plan and that is to keep my citizenship.
