With advance polls conveniently opening on Friday, we thought it would be fun to cast our ballots early.
We weren’t alone, as long lines snaked through and out of the polling station in our neighbourhood. And while some grumbled, my wife and I thought it was heartening to see such a strong turnout. Besides, spontaneous dates can happen anywhere.
Didn’t stop me from engaging in some guerilla photography as we approached the front of the line. I’m guessing any kind of photography or videography is a no-no, but voting makes me feel like a bit of a badass, and I wanted to remember what that singular moment in collective democracy felt like.
Besides, the yellow tape with the Elections Canada logo was fetching. And it had been a while since I had last shot a shoe selfie.
And now that I’ve scratched my X on a ballot, I have renewed my inalienable right to whine incessantly about our country’s politics and politicians. That’s how it works, isn’t it?
