Federal party leaders have scattered across the country as the election campaign starts to ramp up in earnest.

Sunday was the legal deadline for Justin Trudeau to ask the Governor General to dissolve Parliament and call the election, but the Liberal leader got the jump on that by starting the campaign last Wednesday.

And the NDP found themselves constantly facing questions about whether they were ready to run at all, considering they had yet to nominate dozens of candidates.The Liberals will campaign in and around Toronto, with Trudeau scheduled to appear at a massive rally for tennis superstar Bianca Andreescu who captivated the country with her win over Serena Williams at the U.S. Open last weekend.

On the plane Saturday night, Scheer defended the decision to keep those four candidates on the roster, including one whose past was deemed controversial enough to bar her from running for the provincial conservatives in Ontario. The surge was known as the orange wave, and it's receded quite a bit since. The party is down to 11 seats in the province now, which recently saw one of its stars defect to the Greens and had to fire another candidate over domestic assault allegations.

Day 4: Party leaders travel across Canada to win over votersParty leaders travel across Canada to win over voters on the first official weekend of the Federal Election.

I even signed a portion to put Elizabeth May in the debates and I don’t even support her at this time. But she deserved to be heard. Canada needs REAL options. Establishment politics and media are hurting Canada. Can I vote for William Shatner?
