In what year were most Canadian female citizens aged 21+ granted the right to vote?

  1. 1917

  2. 1918

  3. 1940

  4. 1945

The correct answer is: 1918

Most Canadian female citizens aged 21+ were granted the right to vote in 1918. Option A is incorrect because it is one year earlier than the correct answer. Option C and D are incorrect because they are significantly later than the correct answer, with a difference of 22 and 27 years, respectively. Based on historical and social movements, it is unlikely that the granting of voting rights to women would have been delayed for such a long period of time. Therefore, B is the most likely and correct answer.
