Special Areas Provides Update on the Special Ballot Process

Residents in the Special Areas were able to participate in the October 18, 2021, Provincial Senate election and referendum questions by special (mail-in) ballot.

“Being able to vote on matters that impact you is a foundation of good governance.

For the Provincial Senate Election and Referendum questions on October 18, Special Areas residents were only able to vote by special ballot. We have heard from many residents this process did not work and prevented people from having their say on these important questions.

On behalf of the Board, and our entire organization, we are committed to working with the Province to do better.”

Jordon Christianson, Chair
