Residents of the Saanich-Gulf Islands riding are encouraged to participate in advance voting from April 18 to 21, between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. at designated polling stations.
Registered voters should have received their voter information cards by April 11.
These cards provide critical information, including the location and accessibility of one's assigned polling station, how to request voting assistance (including language and sign language interpretation) and the address of the nearest Elections Canada office for special ballot voting.
While bringing the voter information card along with accepted ID will expedite the voting process, it is not mandatory.
Voters have until April 22 at 6 p.m. to check and update their registration information through the Online Voter Registration Service or by calling 1-800-463-6868 or 1-800-361-8935 (TTY).
Updates to voter information, including name changes, must also be submitted by this deadline to your local Elections Canada office.
Registration is also possible at the polling station when you go to vote.
If you prefer to vote by mail or need to vote from a location other than your assigned polling station, you can apply for a special ballot. The deadline to apply is April 22. Completed special ballots must be received by Elections Canada by Election Day, Monday, April 28.
Special ballot voting options are available in acute care facilities, such as hospitals.
