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.

Very much so.
