The act requires that the person signing the endorsement must be eligible to vote in an election for an office within the municipality if a regular election was held on the day the person endorses the nomination. In addition to the endorsement, they will be required to sign a declaration that they are eligible to vote in the Municipality.
A person eligible to vote in the municipality may provide endorsements to as many candidates as they choose and may endorse candidates for any office on the municipal council. A person running for a ward councillor office may submit signatures from voters who do not live in that ward.
If you submit 25 endorsement signatures, as required, and find out later that one or multiple supporters were not eligible to vote on the day they signed the endorsement, you will not lose your nomination. The person who supplied false information by signing your endorsement could be subject to prosecution.
