When Minnetonka votes
The last and next general elections at each level; a by-election can come in between.
| Election | Last | Next |
|---|---|---|
| Winnipeg council | 28 October 2026 | 23 October 2030 |
| Legislative Assembly of Manitoba | 3 October 2023 | – |
| House of Commons | 28 April 2025 | – |
Winnipeg council was elected on 28 October 2026, and the next vote is on 23 October 2030. That date comes from the The Municipal Councils and School Boards Elections Act, which sets the fourth Wednesday in October every four years. Voters last chose the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba on 3 October 2023 and the House of Commons on 28 April 2025. No open copy of the 2025 counts exists, and Elections Canada’s own terms rule out commercial reuse, so 2021 is the last vote shown.
