Even if it is minimal it will still be 30-45 minutes of valuable time for them and this is mirrored for tens of thousands of students across the province. I'll encourage them to vote in the advance polls if the times work. I recall seeing the rules have changed and you can vote at any advance polling station rather than the designated one in your riding. Hopefully that is the case and hopefully the Universities will have stations set up to make it easier for students to vote.

Lets not pretend this isn't planned. They want to make sure as many students are still around and will promote heavily for them to get out and vote.
