With this welcoming call, Filipinos in Canada especially kababayans who are still holding Philippine passports either as a Filipino national or dual citizen, are being encouraged to exercise the right of suffrage–that is to vote–in the May 2016 national elections sa ating Inang Bayan<\/em>.<\/p>\n

In a previous announcement, the Philippine Embassy in Ottawa, “encourages our Fellow Kababayans to register through the Philippine Consulate General office in Toronto, as Overseas Voter to be able to vote for the 2016 Presidential Elections” in order to choose the Philippines’ next national leaders.<\/p>\n

The Overseas Voting Act or Republic Act No. 9189, passed on February 13, 2003, provides for a system for citizens of the Philippines to vote in election. The Act states that “all Filipino citizens abroad who are not disqualified by law and at least 18 years of age by the time of elections will be entitled to vote” but must file their application personally at the Consulate nearest their region.<\/p>\n

A registered Overseas Absentee Voter may vote for the following positions during a presidential election: President, Vice President, Senators and Part-list representatives.<\/p>\n
