TIL: Donald Sutherland fought against the Conservative Harper government over a federal law that took the right to vote away from Canadian citizens living abroad. Sutherland, born in #NewBrunswick, argued that he had a Canadian passport, an Order of Canada and a ‘maple leaf in my underwear.' Eventually, the Supreme Court of #Canada ruled in 2019 that citizens living abroad for five years or more shouldn't be denied the right to vote.
