VANCOUVER (Reuters) - Canadians turned to social media to complain about the difficulty of voting on Monday in the country's closely fought federal election, which comes after the ruling Conservatives toughened rules around voter identification.

Using the hashtag #pollwatch, people shared frustrations from polling stations opening late, to being turned away for not having the correct forms of identification, to one man who had to swear to election workers he was not his twin brother.
