Canada's voter identification laws changed for 2015, then reverted for 2019. This was due to change in governments.

Realistically, in the short term the law is going to be "whatever the government wants it to be until the Supreme Court sets a precedent".

Yes, in the last Canadian election you didn't need ID to vote, you just needed someone with an ID to vouch for you.
