Voter Information
Elections Ontario is responsible for maintaining the Permanent Register of Electors for Ontario, also known as the Voters’ List. The Voters’ List, is a list of individuals eligible to vote in provincial and local municipal elections in Ontario.
You can use Elections Ontario’s Voter Registration application to confirm, update or add your information if you:
- have changed your name or address
- own or rent a new property
- no longer own or rent a property
- want to remove your information
If you or your spouse own or rent property other than your home address in Ontario, you may be eligible to vote in more than one municipal election.
Visit Elections Ontario’s website to learn more about voter information, and other options including:
- removing yourself from the Register
- removing a deceased person from the Register
- adding yourself to the list of Future Voters (if you’re under 18 years of age)
Updating Your School Support
As of January 1, 2024, the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) is no longer responsible for collecting voter information for local elections. MPAC is legislatively required to collect school support information.
You can update your school support designation through MPAC’s Online School Support Tool.
As a property owner in Ontario, you are required to support a school system, even if you do not have children or your children are not currently attending school. This information can be found on your Property Assessment Notice.
Learn more about school support by visiting MPAC.
Register of Future Voters
The Ontario Register of Future Voters is designed for eligible 16 and 17-year-olds so that they will automatically be added to the Register when they turn 18.
Visit RegisterToVoteON.ca to learn about eligibility, ID requirements and how to register as a future voter.
