How Suffrage is Restricted in Canada.
From the Albany Times Union,

The Canadian restrictions on suffrage
are peculiar. In order to be entitled to
vote, not only must one be a male British
subject q years of age, and have lived in
the Dominion at least year, but he must
also have been the owner of real estate or
the occupier of rented house or business
property for the same time If he owns
real estate in city it must be worth 5000;
If in q town 5000, and if elsewhere $50. If
he neither owns real estate nor occupies
real estate as tenant he can vote if he
earns $500 a year, or IL he be the son of a
farmer or real estate owner and live at
his fathers home. An income voter is
not required, as all other voters are, to
live year in the district where he wants
TO vote, but can register at any time.
