Tomorrow is voting day for us Canucks and I just want to make sure you all know where to go to vote and some of your options.
First of all, to find out where to vote go to this website and type your postal code into the box to find your electoral district.

Make sure to bring a driver's licence and/or birth certificate and if you have one, a voter's card. The polls are open from 930 am to 930 pm.
I can't really tell you who to vote for but here's is an extensive list of parties in Canada, including but not limited to the green party, the conservatives, the liberals and the new democrats.

There is also another option for those who don't find any of the candidates satisfactory - casting a Protest Vote. When you go to the polls, get your ballot and hand it back to the person behind the desk and say there are no candidates worth voting for and that you would like to cast a protest vote.
This is actually taken down as a formal protest and those numbers ARE seen by those in power. I've noticed this year that the Green Party is being seen as this year's protest vote party. A lot of people that don't know who to vote for seem to be voting green so that their vote doesn't get wasted.
No matter how you choose to vote, please just VOTE. Many people seem to think their one little vote won't make a difference, won't be missed but it makes a huge difference.
It also gives you complaining rights if the government continues to f*** us over haha.
So get out there and exercise your right, or rather privilege, to vote.
Who are you voting for? Why?
