In order to vote, you must show the election worker ID that confirms your name and your address. There are three options:

Option 1 - Driver's License or Government Issued Photo ID Card

This has your name, your address, and a photo of you. If you have a driver's license, this is the only piece of ID that you need

Option 2 - Two pieces of ID

Both pieces of ID must show your name. At least one must show your address. Common pieces which show your name include your health card, a Canadian passport, an Indian Status card, a birth certificate, or a social insurance card. Common pieces which show your address include a utility bill, a vehicle registration, or a property tax assessment.

Option 3 - Vouching

If you do not have any ID, another voter can vouch for you. An eligible voter, who knows you and lives in the same constituency as you, may vouch for you at the voting place when you arrive to vote.
