To Vote Or Not To Vote? That Is The Question

Summary: Examines Toronto's recent low-voter turnout. The Bureau argues that without a higher voter turnout the decisions of council are morally questionable. The Bureau suggests making city council terms longer in order to attract candidates of a higher calibre, as well as publishing budget figures before elections in order to generate more interest in voting.
