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]
I voted yesterday!
It was a smooth process, in and out in 5 minutes.
I did my part. Now hopefully the rest of you all don’t fuck it up.

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.
45min wait this morning
CANADA DOESNT NEED A SMALL pp
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. Very 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!
Why don’t they just call it “Election Week”.
Because the actual election day is the week after advance voting ends.
5 minute lineup voting today; went relatively smoothly.
Anyone voting in one of those ridings with more than 8 candidates? How did that go?
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.
30 min lineup at advance voting at about 4pm today. Everyone I talked to says it’s longer than previous years!
Nice to read that the lines are just as long for everyone else as they were for my lady and I. Brings a lot of comfort to see not only so many out to vote, but so many out to vote on early voting day!
