Elections Canada expressed thanks to all election workers for their dedication and to all voters for their patience in a social media post. Early voting across Canada began on Friday and ended on Monday.
An Elections Canada spokesperson stated that it was too early to determine if the record advance voting would lead to an overall increase in voter turnout. However, they noted that it indicated strong interest in the election. In the last federal election, approximately 17 million voters cast ballots, representing 62.6 percent of the total electorate.
