Why are judges not allowed to in Canada?

In Canada, judges are not allowed to engage in political activities or run for political office to maintain judicial impartiality and independence. This separation ensures that judges can make decisions free from external pressures and biases, preserving public confidence in the judicial system. Additionally, their impartial role is essential for upholding the rule of law and ensuring fair trials. Any involvement in politics could undermine their authority and the perception of justice.
