    Suffrage in Canada has expanded significantly since Confederation. Originally in 1900, only European men could vote. Women gained the right to vote in 1918. In 1953, suffrage was extended to non-European people. Finally in 1960, universal suffrage was achieved and all Canadian citizens could vote regardless of race or gender. Key events included the Suffrage Movement led by women in the west and the "Person's Case" of 1929 which established women as legal persons with rights like voting.
