Voting From Outside Canada
Thursday September 11, 2008
If you are a Canadian citizen who will be at least 18 years old on election day October 14, 2008 and are living outside Canada temporarily, you may be able to vote by mail in the upcoming Canadian federal election. You'll have to act promptly though.
If you expect to be outside Canada on both election day and during the advance polls, and you have a permanent residence in Canada, you can vote by mail-in ballot. You must register in time for Elections Canada to send you a mail-in ballot and return it to Elections Canada by the deadline. Once you register to vote by mail-in ballot, you will not be able to vote in regular or advance polls.
