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.

It was a mistake (in obvious retrospect) to not settle for RCV. Singh made his weekend speech, "vote strategically to not split for CPC win", which never has to be said under RCV. You can instead double down on why you should be first or 2nd choice, and voter only needs to agree to help you/party. You don't get strategic voting instructions from mainstream media. You have to rely on actively searched for leaked polling data that may or may not be true.

That's what I meant in long form. If they would have held the Libs to account, they could have got it. Instead they backed themselves into a corner and us into a two-party system. Fuck them in the 🐐 🍑 but this is what they get for not being the NDP Canadians needed.

Did they accomplish something? Sure, but not what we most need to avoid the pitfalls of a two-party ticket in the future. And the future is here.
