Federal Election Update – Advance Voting Begins Friday, October 9

The longest federal election in Canadian history is finally coming to an end and public opinion polls are telling us that the race is still too close to call. The saying “Every Vote Counts” applies to every election, but this year those words ring truer than ever.

Elections Canada has updated its website to include more information on how Canadians can make their voice heard. Please visit http://www.elections.ca/content2.aspx?section=vote&document=index&lang=e to get information about Advance Voting, Polling Station Locations and to verify whether your voter registration is up to date.

Before you go vote, be sure to visit the Canadian Teachers’ Federation election website at http://vox.ctf-fce.ca/ to learn more about the political parties’ policies and election announcements about public education.
