Voter Registration
To Check, Update, Add or Remove yourself from the Voter's List please contact the Municipal Office.
School Support Updates after the June 1st Deadline
June 1 was the deadline to update your school support designation so MPAC could provide accurate information to Elections Ontario for the creation of the Preliminary List of Electors, in accordance with election timelines. You can still update your designation after June 1 using MPAC AboutMyProperty™ or MPAC’s online portal for tenants. Your change will be recorded by MPAC, but it will not appear on the Preliminary List of Electors. After submitting your update, you’ll receive an email confirmation. Share this with the Township via email at clerk@mckellar.ca so your information can be updated on the final Voters List.
Voter Information Letters
Voter Information Letter will be mailed in late September 2026. If you do not receive a letter by October 6, 2026; please email admin@mckellar.ca
Voting Dates
Electors will be able to vote by internet or telephone between Wednesday, October 14, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. until Voting Day ending Monday, October 26, 2026 at 8:00 p.m.
