An estimated 19.5 million Canadians voted in the federal election, Elections Canada said. 

that "more Canadians than ever before cast a ballot in a federal election." 

Preliminary numbers from Elections Canada show that 11,062,539 people voted at their polling station or in their long-term care home on election day. Another 928,311 voted within their electoral district by special ballot, and 215,057 voted by special ballot outside of their electoral district (that number includes deployed military personnel, inmates and electors who were in Canada but outside their electoral district). Lastly, 57,440 people who live outside of Canada voted by special ballot. 

"This translates into a voter turnout rate of about 68.65 per cent," noted Elections Canada. The 2021 federal election saw a voter turnout of 62.5 per cent, with 17,209,000 Canadians casting their ballots.
