It recently came to my attention that less than 3% of all Canadians have joined a political party. I was wondering why this was and how many of you have joined a party and what were your reasons for doing/or not doing so?
I have not joined a party because I am young enough to have not sorted out my ideology in all aspects and don't want to limit myself to a party. As well, I want my vote to be annoynomous which it isn't really if you are in a party. I also want to keep open any careers in the government in which they require you to be politically neutral.
