the best in Canada’s upcoming election. Justin has been an effective leader and strong voice for democratic values, and I’m proud of the work we did together.“Will this actually generate any significant shifts in the polls? You know, I’m a bit skeptical. I will have to look over the next few days,” he said, adding it “can’t hurt” the Liberal chances.

Trudeau defends large election rally, says it followed COVID-19 health guidelinesLiberal Leader Justin Trudeau is defending a large indoor rally he held in Brampton, Ont., saying his party followed public health guidelines. Why is everyone so paranoid about a virus life has to go on. Whether an election, work or school nothing should change. People all crammed together.
