Here is how you vote Alberta Provincial 2008

I'll not rant about the importance of voting.

If the Canadian school system combined with watching the amount of people that die around the world to vote doesn’t influence you to vote, I really don’t have much of a chance.

However if you’re contemplating voting, this page might make it a little easier which may in turn encourage you to vote.

Thanks, Luke
