The Permanent Register of Electors means
that province-wide enumeration is no longer
necessary. In some areas, however, target revision
may be needed to identify eligible voters.
By providing our team of revising agents with
accurate information about eligible voters living
at your address, you will help us to make sure that
it appears correctly on the Voters List.

If your name is on the Voters List, you will soon
receive a Notice of Registration card in the mail.
Your Notice of Registration card identifies:
• your electoral district
• the location of the poll where you vote on
election day
• the dates and locations for advance poll voting
in your electoral district
