they wouldn't let me vote this year because my address on my drivers license is still in coquitlam and you have to vote in your regional district, i called up canada elections to see if i could vote at the burnaby one by my work and they said no. wtf!
What? Thats not right....all you have to do is have a piece of mail that has your current address on it...You can go to any polling station as long as you have your current address with you.... I've heard of that happening to a few people already..all young people...maybe thats why young people dont vote (because yes Kels..we ARE still young!)
you can't actually go to any polling station as long as you have your current address on you. you have to go to the right one based on your address.
not to be a jerk, but it makes sense that you can only vote based on where you actually live, because there are actually specific candidates in each electoral district... so you're not just voting for a party.
except that I wasnt registered in my area and all i had to do was show them a piece of ID and a piece of mail and they re-registered me there. Before that I was downtown.

maybe people would have gotten it if they had put the information up on facebook instead.
