Vote on advance polling days at your ASSIGNED polling station
They run from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on:
- Friday, April 18
- Saturday, April 19
- Sunday, April 20, or
- Monday, April 21
The rules for voting on advance polling days in the federal election differ from those of some provincial elections, where you can vote at any advance voting place in the province. You cannot do the same in the federal election. If you choose to vote during advance polling days, you must vote at your assigned polling station. To find your advance polling station, check your voter information card or use the Voter Information Service. [same links as above]
Voted over the weekend - we went later in the day, and it turned out to be perfect timing! literally no one in line when we got there, we were in and out in less than 3 minutes. I can’t imagine what the lines are going to look like closer to the last day.
CANADA DOESNT NEED A SMALL pp
45min wait this morning
I went Saturday morning first thing. Walked in and out in under 5 minutes. This was the first time I did advance polling and I’m super happy I did.
One hour lineup on fri.
Frankly surprised at how many others showed up that day, but glad. People need to be more active in the democratic process or else it only benefits the already powerful because they never forget to vote.
I wonder if it was increased turn out due to it being a stat
Just voted. Lineups were slim to none. 15 minutes and done.
Is there any early data on turnout?

Elections Canada has announced preliminary estimates that show nearly two million electors voted Friday, the first day of advance polls.
François Enguehard, a regional media advisor in the Atlantic region for Elections Canada, said the turnout is up 36 per cent from the first day of advance polling in the last election in 2021.
Thank you sir!
5 minute lineup voting today; went relatively smoothly.
Anyone voting in one of those ridings with more than 8 candidates? How did that go?
Why don’t they just call it “Election Week”.
Just a reminder that a Conservative vote is literally a vote to destroy Canadian culture with their plans to defund the CBC.
And likely the country itself, since Polievre is a fucking coward who’ll give the Toddler-in-Chief whatever he wants.
I heard people say the same about Carney. It’s so hard to trust sources of information now. :(
Only one of those two have similar rhetoric to trump and similar playback.
You’re gonna be excited to learn about the deportation of protestors as lil PP said the other day.
What exactly do you mean by this?
Canada going the Trump way? Tory leader vows to deport foreigners for anti-Semitic crimes
And anti Semitic means anti genocide, since Israel has campaigned on making the terms synonymous and it appears they have been successful.
Successful in mass media, sure.
Voted yesterday at 11 am, no one in line at my pole, but the one next to mine, there were about 20 people queued up. I think there might be a big turnout for this election.
I’ve seen more people in line compared to the last two Ontario elections in total.
Bodes well for the non-traitors.
Currently in line with my family. The lines here are huge.
I guess with this being a stat everyone is available.
They should make voting days a holiday
My job gives me three hours out of the workday so I can vote.
It can become a stat. It should be a stat. The precedent is there.
It’s a law, every employer must allow voters 3h of time to vote : https://www.elections.ca/content2.aspx?section=faq&document=faqtimo&lang=e
Some polls show a very close race, so this election might be much closer than suggested a week or two ago. Get out and vote!
Regardless of the polling numbers. Get out and VOTE!!
If you can’t make it to your assigned advance polling station you can VOTE at any Elections Canada Office before 6PM on April 22nd.
