Federal Election 2025

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is claiming the Liberals will impose a tax on Canadians' home equity if they're re-elected as the federal election campaign enters its final week.

The last day of advance voting in the general election saw federal leaders scattered across the country, pitching plans on homebuilding and health care.

Poilievre was in Toronto Monday afternoon speaking to an audience with CARP, the Canadian Association of Retired Persons. He was asked whether he would put any taxes on equity saved in Canadians' homes.

We are just one week away from the final day of the federal election campaign. Early voting closes today, and we are taking a closer look at our local candidates ahead of the final vote on April 28. 

Britt Baumann is the NDP Candidate for the Moose Jaw – Lake Centre – Lanigan riding: 

Advance polls close at 9 p.m. tonight in Airdrie–Cochrane — but early voting continues at Elections Canada offices until Tuesday.

The Conservatives and NDP spent the weekend hunting votes in British Columbia — a key late-campaign battleground that one pollster says may offer Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre his best shot at victory.

Both Poilievre and NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh addressed Canadians' cost-of-living concerns at campaign events in B.C. on Sunday.

Singh was asked if he was advocating strategic voting to shore up the party's flagging support against possible Conservative inroads in the region.

The federal Liberals and NDP both released their costed campaign platforms Saturday as Elections Canada reported record turnout in the first day of advanced polls.

Nearly two million people showed up to cast a ballot on Friday, the first of four days for advanced voting in the federal election.

Elections Canada said in a social media post it will be making adjustments over the coming days to handle the high traffic after many voters were met with long lineups at polling stations.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre promised to strike down a key element of the Liberal government's environmental policy Friday as he and other party leaders got back on the campaign trail following the national leaders' debates in Montreal.

The campaigning Friday also coincided with the opening of the first of four days of advance polling across the country.

Both Poilievre and NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh stayed in Quebec to make announcements Friday morning, while Liberal Leader Mark Carney made his way to Niagara Falls, Ont.

A steady stream of Cochrane voters filed into polling stations on the first day of advance voting in the federal election.

Both the Lions Event Centre and Wills Community Hall (formerly Frank Wills Memorial Hall) saw lineups of eager voters.

Advance polling stations will be open today until 9 p.m., and from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Saturday, April 19; Sunday, April 20; and Monday, April 21.

With only ten days remaining before election day, voters in Riding Mountain electoral district will have five candidates to choose from in the upcoming federal election.

Advance voting kicks off starting today and will continue through the long weekend until Monday.

Elections Canada has their lists updated for the candidates of each constituency.

The five candidates for Riding Mountain are:

Advanced voting for the upcoming federal election starts today and will run through Monday as people can cast their ballot on the long weekend ahead of election day coming up on April 28.

West Central residents are in parts of three different ridings this election: Swift Current-Grasslands-Kindersley, Battlefords-Lloydminster-Meadow Lake, and Carlton Trail-Eagle Creek. 

Liberal Leader Mark Carney spent his first English election debate presenting himself as a safe pair of hands for a country in crisis — while Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre sought to frame him as more of the same after a decade of Liberal government.

Carney, who is leading in the polls, became the main target of all his rivals' attacks early in Thursday's final debate of the election — a trend that carried over from Wednesday's French language debate.
