Here are the voting hours for each time zone. All times are local.
Newfoundland — 8:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m.
Atlantic — 8:30 a.m. – 8:30 p.m.
Eastern — 9:30 a.m. – 9:30 p.m.
Manitoba — 8:30 a.m. – 8:30 p.m.
Alberta, Saskatchewan and Northwest Territories — 7:30 a.m. – 7:30 p.m.
Pacific — 7 a.m. – 7 p.m.
This means polls in Newfoundland and Labrador will close at 7 p.m. ET — and all polls will be closed by 10 p.m. ET.
A very large portion of results from Québec to Alberta will be coming in at 9:30 p.m. ET.
Approximately 5% of ballots have been cast via the mail, and will begin to be counted on Tuesday due to a security measure to ensure that the mail-in vote hasn't voted in person before. Ridings that are a close race will likely take a few days to have a winner confirmed.
Feel free to discuss anything surrounding the 2021 Canadian federal election. Today is your last chance to vote!
15 minutes before the polls close in Newfoundland, we'll have a new megathread up where we'll discuss results as they come in.
Feel free to share polls, your experience voting, the number of signs in your neighbourhood, or spicy predictions regarding results later this evening.
Just curious how my fellow Canadians are feeling about election (not looking to stir the pot, btw!)

The newly elected New Democratic government marks the first successful government formed by the party and the first non-conservative government in nearly a decade. The new prime minister says that during his term he will work for carbon neutrality, sustainable agriculture, infrastructure rebuilding, and addressing increased automation.
I’ve been looking over the upcoming election platforms for the different federal parties, and I’m curious about which platform people think will be the best for investors?
