Calgary voters can cast their ballots in just a couple of days for two byelections in the city.

Advanced polls open Friday for Calgary-Heritage and Calgary-Midnapore constituents.

They’re part of five byelections happening across the country.

The advanced polls are open from noon until 8 p.m.

People can check the Elections Canada website to find the nearest polling station.

Advanced polls are open until Monday, March 27, and the byelection is April 3.

Calgary-Heritage was occupied by former Prime Minister Stephen Harper, while new leader of the Progressive Conservatives, Jason Kenney, vacated Midnapore to seek leadership of the provincial party.
