t’s time. On Monday, Oct. 19, we head to the polls to elect a new federal government. People flocked to advance polling stations over the Thanksgiving long weekend, with an estimated 3.6 million people across Canada turning out to cast a ballot. That’s a 71 per cent increase from 2011, when 2.1 million people voted early. Will that trend continue? Only time will tell. If you aren’t sure who to vote for, there are handy tools out there to help see which party’s stance best aligns with yours. Votecompass.com is a CBC tool developed by political scientists designed to help explore how you fit in Canada’s political landscape. More than 1.4 million people have used it so far. And why not bring a buddy? That’s the message coming from a group, @VotingBuddies on Twitter, that aims to “empower every citizen who wants to vote to get out to the polls.” The idea is simple: find a friend (or five), take a photo including #VotingBuddies and post that image to social media. Tag three friends and you’re done. Want to learn more about your local candidates? Pop onto Thenownewspaper.com and click on our “2015 Federal Election” section. There, you’ll not only find detailed maps of our area’s ridings but you can also read about local issues and find information about our candidates and what they stand for. Also, make sure you visit the Now’s website throughout the evening Monday for election results and reactions. Details on how, where and when to vote on Oct. 19 can be found at Elections.ca.
