I shouldn’t really tell you how to vote today, the campaigning is over and it’s up to the individual to decide today.

However, should you still be totally confused, check out The Undecided. It will give you an issue based quiz to find out which federal party your personal views are best aligned with. It’s a good non-partisan guide to help you with this important decision.

You should have received a voter registration card in the mail. Bring it with you to the polling place listed on the card. The polls are open until 7p tonight.

If you didnt receive the card, visit the Elections Canada website to find your polling place, all you need to know is your postal code.

Once you get to the polling place, there are three ways to prove your identity.

1. Provide one piece of original government issued id showing your photo and address (driver’s license).

2. Provide two original pieces of identification. Both must contain your name, one must contain your address (health card and hydro bill).

3. Swear an oath and be vouched for by an elector.

You are also entitled, by law, to 3 consecutive hours in which to place your vote. In other words, if you couldnt get it done this morning, you’re legally allowed to get off work at 4p this afternoon to get ‘er done.

We all bitch and complain about the choices we have come election day, but at least we have a choice.

Please vote.
