WHEN DO I VOTE?

WHERE DO I VOTE?
If you received a voter information card in the mail, it'll tell you where your polling station is. If not, head to vote.ca and follow the prompts there. You can also head to the Elections Canada website or call your local Elections Canada office for more information.
WHAT DO I NEED TO VOTE?
If you didn't receive a voter information card, check if you're registered to vote. If you're not, you always register at the polls. Here's what you'll need when you head out on Monday:
- A piece of government-issued photo ID OR:
- Two pieces of ID that show your current address OR:
- If you don't have anything that shows your address, bring two pieces of ID as well as someone who can verify (via oath) your identity
Even if you're frustrated with the election, head to the polls anyways. A spoiled or blank ballot makes a much bigger statement than not voting at all.
