Nova Scotia is officially in an election period. It’s the 41st general election in the Province. Voting day is Tuesday August 17.
I encourage you to vote! The first step is to make sure that you are on the voters list.
Voter cards will be mailed out to everyone that is eligible but I understand that will not happen for another week or so.
To be eligible to vote in this election, you must:
- be a Canadian citizen
- be at least 18 years old on election day and
- have lived in Nova Scotia for at least six months
After a few weeks, if you don’t get a voter card in the mail you can register online, by phone, email or mail.
If you want to register by email or mail, you can download this application form.
Email it to [email protected] or mail to:
