The Associated Press reports:
Polling hours vary across Canada’s six time zones, although most polls are coordinated to close at 9:30 p.m. EDT, which coincides with Eastern Daylight Time in the U.S. Polls in the Newfoundland Time Zone in the east and the Pacific Time Zone in the west close at 10 p.m. EDT. Some electoral districts span more than one time zone. Voters will elect their local representative to the House of Commons. No other contests will appear on the ballot. Voters do not directly cast ballots for Prime Minister.
Elections Canada says it expects to count the “vast majority” of ballots on election night. Each polling place counts its election day vote by hand after polls close and reports the results to the district’s local Elections Canada office, which then posts the results on the Elections Canada website.

Canadian media organizations typically announce winners based on their own independent analysis of election results.
