I don't understand how it was possible to people who didn't go to TIFF to vote
I don't know when the process changed, but it wasn't like that in 2014. That year, in order to vote, you were asked to drop your ticket into the collection boxes as you left the theatre after the movie, or vote online. Because I wanted to keep my ticket as a souvenir, I voted online. I remember that I had to put in the number code from my ticket in order to vote.
This year, when I printed out my ticket at home, it included a separate voting ticket you could cut out to place in the collection boxes after the movie. I didn't do that, wanting to vote online, instead. But then I discovered it could only be done through the TIFF app, which I didn't have. Downloading the app took forever but it eventually worked. I looked up The Current War and thought I would be asked to enter my ticket code, but no. All I had to do was click on "I want to vote for this movie" or something like that. I was just telling my sister about it today. You could vote without ever having seen any of the movies. I was tempted to tell everyone on this forum to go vote, but it would have meant downloading that awful app and I wouldn't want to put anyone through that!
