We’re off to the polls on April 28th, after Prime Minister Mark Carney asked Governor General Mary Simon to dissolve Parliament and call an election.
Pollsters say its a two-horse race right now, with the Liberals holding a slight edge.
Carney kicked off his campaign with a pledge to reduce the lowest income tax bracket from 15 per cent to 14.
He also says his party needs a strong mandate from Canadians to deal with the threat of American tariffs.
Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre says he’ll be respectful but firm with U-S President Donald Trump.
The NDP’s Jagmeet Singh insists the two main parties will only work for the rich, and ignore the needs of ordinary Canadians.
The candidate nomination deadline is 2 pm on April 7th, while advance voting will be held April 18th through the 21st.
