Canadian federal election called

The election will take place on October 14th.

Americans in the middle of the Longest Campaign probably don't want to hear this.

Image: Elections in Canada as in many other countries begin with writs issued by the Crown (often in the person of the local Governor-General). This goes back to the practices of medieval England. But could I find a picture of a medieval writ of election? No.
