Sunday!


Gather 'round the campfire, /r/CanadaPolitics. This is your daily discussion thread for the 45th General Election. All polls and projections must be posted in this thread.


When posting a poll, at a minimum, it must include the following:

  • Name of the firm conducting the poll
  • Topline numbers
  • A link to the PDF or article where the poll can be found

If available, it would also be helpful to post when the poll was in the field, the sample size, and the margin of error. Make sure you note whether you're posting a new opinion poll or an aggregator update.


When discussing non-polling topics, make sure you keep discussions related to the ongoing federal election. Subreddit rules will be enforced, so please ensure that your comments are substantive and respectful or you may be banned for the remainder of the writ period or longer.

Do not downvote comments that you disagree with. Our subreddit has a zero-tolerance no-downvoting policy.

Discussions in this thread will also be clipped, locked, and redirected if a submission has already been posted to the main subreddit on the same topic.


Frequently Asked Questions

When is Election Day?

Monday, April 28th.

When are advanced polls?

Friday, April 18th; Saturday, April 19th; Sunday, April 20th; and Monday, April 21st.

How can I check my voter registration?

Right here.

Can I work for Elections Canada?

You sure can. Elections Canada is hiring staff all over Canada - from HQ in the National Capital Region to returning officers and poll clerks in every single riding.

How can I help out my local [insert party here] candidate?

No matter which party or candidate you support, there's no better time to make a direct impact in our democratic process than volunteering on a campaign. If your local candidate (from any party!) has been nominated, they likely have a website with their campaign's contact details. Volunteering for a party or candidate you support - whether making phone calls, going door-to-door, or putting up signs - can give you invaluable connections with those in your community that share your common values.

What about campus voting, mail-in ballots, and voting at the returning office?
