Election Information

I recommend that you check the links yourself! I've copied some of the information below:

Ways to vote

See this page for full details.

Vote on election day (April 28)

Check the hours for your timezone
Check your polling station on your voter information card or by using the Voter Information Service website.

Vote by mail

This method is for those who requested mail-in ballots a while back.
Make sure that you get in your ballot on time: elections.ca/voting-by-mail
uses the special ballot process

Special Ballots

Remember: Once you apply to vote by special ballot, you can't change your mind and vote at advance polls or on election day.

See this page for deadlines for when you can apply for one, and when they must receive it by. It also has information on what you must do differently when filling out this ballot: https://www.elections.ca/content2.aspx?section=vote&dir=spe&document=index&lang=e

If you are having any issues, reach out to your local Elections Canada office to know your options.

Everyone I've known who has done has always been an incredibly low information voter. It isn't that hard to make a choice. Expecting to have a federal party that matches 100 percent of your beliefs is not realistic and presenting it as an option is just used to suppress votes.

It would be easier if we had ranked choice voting. My mom wants to vote green but she feels like her vote is worthless (I'm not sure how the cons are her 2nd choice given her environmental concerns but i guess no one is immune to propaganda).
