Those wanting to skip the polling stations this election have the option of mailing in their vote.
Voting by mail is a three-step process.
First, the voter must apply online or by contacting any Elections Canada office across the country before 6:00 p.m. on September 14th.
The voter will then receive a voting kit in the mail after around 72 hours.
Then the voter can write the name of the candidate on the ballot and mail it back to Elections Canada. There are instructions in the voting kit.
Last election around 50 thousand Canadians used mail-in ballots, and this year that number is expected to be up to five million.
