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)

Vote by mail

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.

Data on your district:

Find your riding, your local Elections Canada office, and your candidates by using the search on the homepage: elections.ca

This might be the most interesting thing so far, actually, with the orange-blue swing votes in second place.

Poilievre could leave this as a freshly minted lobbyist: His first normal job.

Hopefully it's in the American regime and we never see him again. Opps...was that out loud

Iirc he's got a 5 yr wait before he can register as a lobbyist.

That would make sense. Hmm. A desk job at Harper & Associates I guess, then.
