My boyfriend is Canadian so this is a non-issue with us really.
I'm not very political minded. In my family it was a standard thing to not talk much about religion and politics. I never knew growing up who my parents voted for. I don't really know now who they vote for. I think my Dad leans towards voting Republican while my Mom leans more Democrat. I know my Dad voted Bush last time. No clue who Mom voted for. Doesn't matter in their relationship, they've never discussed their voting habits that I know of. But then again, I'm just the spawn
I should hope it wouldn't become an issue with me and my boyfriend. In the future if I'm able to vote in Canadian elections (after moving and all that citizenship jazz) I hope we could discuss politics, but not force eachother to vote how we wanted. If I voted differently than him I would hope it wouldn't cause huge problems in the relationship. I can see how it could though.
So uhh.. after my long ramble about nothing really, I guess I'll say one of us isn't going to vote (cause he can't) and that's okay with us.
