It is legal for any child of any age to ride in the front seat of any vehicle in Canada. There are no specific laws making this illegal. Transport Canada recommends turning off their airbag when possible and notes that the back seat would be safer. But since many vehicles, including pick up trucks without backseats and many sports cars, smart cars, etc, only have front seats, it's perfectly okay for any child to sit in the front, provided they are properly restrained and using the appropriate child safety seat.

I have seen the men sitting in the front seat(s) and the women sitting in the back seat of a car. Sometimes the guys will talk about the ball game and the ladies will talk about crafts. Of course, there to no shield to prevent the back and front seat passengers from talking to each other. Some ladies are shorter so if it is a two-door car, it may be easier for a woman to get in the back seat.
80 pounds i guess
Wrong category and 11?

In Maine, children under 12 years old are required to ride in the back seat of a vehicle when it is practical to do so. Children can only ride in the front seat if all back seats are occupied by other passengers under 12 years old or if the vehicle does not have a back seat.

In Minnesota, children under the age of 13 are required to sit in the back seat of a vehicle when it is practical to do so. It is recommended that children under 13 avoid sitting in the front seat to minimize the risk of injury from airbags.
If you do not meet the minimum in height and weight for sitting in the front seat or "shotgun" of a car, the airbag will hurt you if you get into a crash.
Laws regarding children sitting in the front seat vary by state and country. However, it is generally recommended that children under the age of 13 sit in the back seat to minimize injury risk from airbag deployment in case of an accident.
