In 2024, Elections Ontario became responsible for providing municipalities with the Preliminary List of Electors (PLE), obtained from the Permanent Register of Electors for Ontario, or the "Register". Previously this responsibility was held by the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) and MPAC's VoterLookup service has been replaced by Elections Ontario's Voter Registration.
Electors can use the Elections Ontario site to update their information for municipal, provincial and School Board Elections in Ontario. The Register is updated regularly with information from various data sources including Elections Canada, the Ministry of Transportation, and the Registrar General, as well as from the Register to Vote site (registertovoteon.ca). Electors may visit the site at any time to confirm, update, or add their elector information.
While the Register will list an elector's School Board Support, the responsibility to collect and maintain this information remains with MPAC. Electors can update their school support information via MPAC's School Support Tool. Changes to school support information must be made by June 15, 2026 for that information to be shared with Elections Ontario for inclusion on the PLE.
In August 2026 Elections Ontario will deliver a PLE to all municipalities via the Election Portal. The PLE shall contain the name and address of each person who is entitled to be an elector.
Electors can register online with Elections Ontario at Voter Registration until August 12, 2026 to check, update, add or remove your information and / or property from the Voters' List. You will need to upload ID and / or other required documentation.
