Canadians came out to vote in this year’s federal election.

According to Elections Canada, over 68 per cent of eligible voters cast a ballot – that equates to 19.5 million people.

That is an increase when compared to 2021 where 62.6 per cent of eligible voters headed to the polls.

Canada’s election voting record was set in March 1958, when 79.4 per cent of eligible residents checked off their candidate of choice.

The Liberal party ended the election with 43.7 per cent of the total vote and 169 seats, while the Conservative party secured 41.3 per cent of the vote and 144 seats.

Voter participation for our local ridings are expected to be published later this week.
