The YPC is involved with Canada's political issues and provides the federal government with the perspective of young Canadians.
The YPC works with politicians to advise on policies and laws that affect young Canadians. In schools, political offices, and campaigns, the YPC works to educate, inform, and benefit the future of Canada's democracy by empowering soon-to-be voters and new to get involved.
The Young Politicians of Canada's Leadership Council works to draft proposals and seek feedback from YPC Ambassadors in order to derive the best course of action for the Canadian Democratic System.
With declining voting rates across Canada, it is crucial, now more than ever, that young people become aware of political issues while taking part in democracy.
Young people possess the initiative, the energy, and the time to volunteer and provide their perspective to constituency offices and campaigns. It is important that we recognize that young people are not only the future of politics but also the future of Canada.

Youth participation in politics is of paramount importance for the vibrant and robust functioning of Canada's democratic system. The inclusion of young voices is essential to ensuring a representative and diverse government that addresses the multifaceted needs of the entire population.
By actively participating in politics, young Canadians bring fresh perspectives, innovative ideas, and a deep understanding of contemporary issues to the table. Their engagement not only contributes to the development of policies that resonate with the challenges and aspirations of their generation but also helps build a more inclusive political landscape. Furthermore, fostering political awareness among the youth nurtures a sense of civic duty and responsibility, instilling a commitment to uphold democratic values.
As the torchbearers of the future, the involvement of young Canadians in politics is an investment in the long-term health and sustainability of Canada's democratic traditions, ensuring that the nation evolves in a manner that reflects the evolving needs and aspirations of its citizens.
