Vote Tomorrow; The OT Shortage: The Heart & Art of Teaching & Learning and Ontario Election Update

Tomorrow is Election Day.  If you have not voted in the advance polls, you have until 9 PM tomorrow to exercise your right to vote.
Even if you did not receive a voter card, you need only bring one piece of identification with your name and current address to your voting station.
This is your right and responsibility.

Ontario 2018  ELECTION UPDATE

Ontario voters faced with two stark options in most ridings
With Kathleen Wynne acknowledging over the weekend that the Liberals have no chance of winning, the election has become, more than ever, a choice between Doug Ford and the PC Party and Andrea Horwath and the NDP. The collapse of the Liberal vote means there are a high number of ridings where there is a tight race between the PC and the NDP candidates.

ETFO members can make a difference by donating even an hour to a campaign.

Polls indicate PC and NDP tied for support
Overall the polls show the PCs and NDP statistically tied for voter support.


The polls don't necessarily predict who will actually vote, which means getting out to vote is the key to which party wins in the many ridings where there are tight races.

Do your part to get out to vote.
