Produce & Politics
On Wednesday, September 11, 2019, the Prime Minister paid a visit to the Governor General requesting the dissolution of the 42nd Parliament and the issuance of writs for the 43rd Canadian General Election. Canadians will go to the polls to choose the next federal government on Monday, October 21, 2019. The Leaders are campaigning in every corner of the country bringing their vision of Canada to the voters. Party candidates and platforms are available here: https://www.liberal.ca/choose-forward/ https://www.conservative.ca/ https://www.ndp.ca/ https://www.greenparty.ca/en https://www.peoplespartyofcanada.ca/ This week we saw the Greens come out shrugging about national unity and a women's right to choose; the Conservatives ranting on about Justin Trudeau and being brought to task on their leader's stance on a women's right to make her own reproductive choices (spoiler: he opposes it); the NDP Leader having a good start butt promising things (i.e. a hospital) he can't deliver; and, the Liberals getting off to a strong start but a media bus ran into their campaign plane.
