Federal Election October 21st

For those who didn’t take advantage of advance voting last weekend, Monday is the big day!

If you received a voting card in the mail, it will tell you where to go to vote. If you received more than one card, make sure to go by the information on the second one, as there may have been a change to your polling place.

If you didn’t receive a card, it doesn’t necessarily mean you’re not on the list, and even if you are not, you can register to vote at your polling place on Monday. To find out where you should vote (if you didn’t receive a card), you can go on the Elections Canada website: elections.ca , choose English or French and then on the welcome page, enter your postal code, then click “where do i vote?” and it will tell you exactly which polling station is yours.

If you do not have access to the internet, you can still call your local Elections Canada office through the weekend. They are no longer able to register you or revise the list (deadline for that was earlier this week) but they can run your postal code for you and tell you where to go on election day. For the Lasalle-Emard-Verdun riding, the phone number is 1 866 216-5113.

All polling stations meet more than a dozen criteria for accessibility. There should not be any stairs to climb! Staff at the polls are there to facilitate your vote. If you need any kind of help, ask them!
