Voters are set to head to the polls on Aug. 18 in the byelection for Battle River-Crowfoot in Alberta, where Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is vying for another chance to enter Parliament.
Although Poilievre is widely expected to win in the longtime Conservative stronghold, 213 other candidates have put their name on the ballot, with the vast majority of them with a protest group asking for election reform.
