On Tuesday, Elections Canada said that voter information cards are on their way to Canadian voters, and that everyone in the country should have them by September 10, which is not coincidentally the first day of advanced voting for this election. Mail-in voting is also an option in this election, and you can find out how to do that here.

If you plan on voting in person, Elections Canada is advising voters that some of the usual polling locations are not available due to the pandemic. The voter information cards have been mailed out as polling locations have been confirmed, but since pandemic conditions can change rapidly, there’s also a caveat.

“Due to unforeseen circumstances, the location of some polling stations may change after the voter information cards are mailed. Whenever possible, electors assigned to such polling stations will receive another voter information card with the words “Replacement Card” printed on the bottom right corner,” said an Elections Canada statement.

You can also vote any day up to Tuesday September 14 at the local Elections Canada returning office at 1-292 Speedvale Avenue West from 9 am to 9 pm.
