Vote Compass is an online tool that helps Canadians find out how their views and values align with the parties. Do you know where you stand?

"Vote Compass asks you questions on some political issues. You'll also be asked about your impressions of the federal leaders. It's that easy!
When you're done, Vote Compass will produce a graph showing your electoral position. You'll see which party is closest to your views — and which is furthest away.
At that point, Vote Compass lets you filter out issues that are less important to you.
So if you care more about the economy and health care — but couldn't care less about immigration or the environment — it will recalculate your position on the chart, and the positions of the parties, too.
The CBC is the site's exclusive media partner, but Vote Compass operates independently. Its questions were developed and chosen by a team of leading academics, including some of Canada's top political scientists."
