Canada Global (Web News) Two million people voted on the first of four days of advance voting in the federal election.
Elections Canada said in a social media post that it would make better arrangements in the coming days, and several voters at polling stations met with them. In the last federal election of 2021, about 5.8 million voters turned out for advance polls, up 18 per cent from the 2019 figure. This year’s four advance voting days fall on the April long weekend. With just a week left until Election Day, Liberal Leader Mark Carney and NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh released documents on Saturday outlining their full campaign promises and what they say they will cost. Conservative Leader Pierre Poilieu, who was campaigning in Richmond, B.C., on Saturday, said his full manifesto would be out soon, but said “95 per cent” of it had already been announced. Advance voting runs from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. local time until Monday. Will continue.
