The election features closely contested local races, particularly in Alberta, and national attention is focused on which party will emerge victorious. Voters are encouraged to check their assigned polling stations and bring necessary identification. The outcome of this election could significantly shape Canada's political landscape.

It’s awesome to see so many people turning out to vote—democracy works best when everyone’s voice is heard, and hopefully this means we’ll get a government that actually invests in public services and works for regular Canadians.
Love seeing so many Canadians stepping up to vote—participation like this is what keeps our democracy strong and reflects the true will of the people.

That is a 25 per cent increase from the 5.8 million voters who voted early in the 2021 general election, said the agency responsible for handling elections. The new number is, however, only an estimate, as some polls may not have been reported yet, it said.

The latest YouGov poll, released on Anzac Day, gave Labor a 53.5-46.5 lead, a half percentage point gain for Labor since the April 11–15 YouGov poll. This is Labor’s biggest lead in YouGov polling this election term.
