Many Calgarians will head to the polls on Monday to cast their ballot in Canada’s 43rd federal election. 

For a rundown on which candidates are running in your Calgary riding, visit this Calgary-built third-party site. If you’re not sure when or where to vote, visit Elections Canada and share your postal code. 

Polling stations will be open from 7:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. You must vote in the polling station for your specific area. It’s not like the Alberta provincial election where you could do the vote anywhere thing.

You will need valid government ID.
