15. Any elector who has a child to whom section 1 of the Education Act (chapter I‐13.3) applies who is admitted to educational services provided by an English-language school service centre having jurisdiction over the territory in which the elector is domiciled may vote at the election of the members of that centre’s board of directors. Any elector who does not have a child to whom section 1 of the Education Act applies who is admitted to educational services provided by an English- or French-language school service centre having jurisdiction over the territory in which the elector is domiciled may vote at the election of the members of the English-language school service centre’s board of directors, if the elector so chooses.
However, an elector whose child was enrolled in an English-language school service centre when he or she finished school is deemed to have chosen to be registered on the list of electors of that English-language school service centre and to vote in its elections.
The elector may exercise the voting option described in the second paragraph, outside election proceedings, if, on the date the option is exercised, the elector does not have a child to whom section 1 of the Education Act applies who is admitted to educational services provided by either of the school service centres having jurisdiction over the territory in which the elector is domiciled.
