Elections Canada opens 109 advanced polling stations at university, college campuses

Elections Canada has set up 109 advanced polling stations at university and college campuses across the country. These stations—part of the Election Canada’s “Vote on Campus” initiative—opened on Sunday and will operate until April 16. Elections Canada spokesperson Serge Fleyfel said the on-campus stations are part of the agency’s efforts to make it easier for students to vote. “Typically, this age group does not vote as much as the rest of the population,” he added. The campus stations can be used by all Canadian voters, provided they bring their ID and proof of address.
