Voting Day Registration
If you are not on the Town’s Voters List, but qualify to vote, you can still register to vote at the Poll Station on General Voting Day, or one of the two Advance Voting Days.
You must provide two pieces of identification that prove who you are and where you live. At least one piece must have your signature. If your ID does not show your address, you can make a “solemn declaration” as to your residency.
Examples of acceptable forms of identification include:
- BC Driver’s Licence
- Social Insurance Card
- Car Insurance
- BC ID Card
- Utility Bill
- Rent Receipt
- Property Tax Notice
- Credit Card or Debit Card
- BC Care Card
- Student Card
Non-resident Property Owners Registration to Vote
Non-resident property owners may also register at the time of voting; however, advance registration is encouraged.
You can apply to register as a Non-Resident Property Elector at the Town of Gibsons, during regular office hours.
You will be asked to provide two pieces of identification and proof that you are the registered owner of the property. If the property is owned jointly with other individuals, you must also have the written consent of the majority of all the owners to vote as the non-resident property elector.
You must complete an Application for Registration as Non-resident Property Elector. We strongly recommend you download the application and consent form and complete it in advance to ensure you have all the information and signatures you need to qualify to vote.
