Poilievre visits northern Canada after electoral map redrawn

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is spending the next week campaigning for votes in northern Ontario.

The tour comes on the heels of NDP leader Jagmeet Singh's, and it's one of the regions of the country that seems most ready for change — partly due to a major re-drawing of the electoral map.

David Akin takes a closer look at the politics of Ontario's north.

“Northern Canada” lol. As a Yukoner I find this both amusing and disturbing.

It's not northern canada... theres 4 provinces and 3 territories that are more north than this riding. Typical toronto centrism

[stevemcentee]

It is NOT on the heels of Singh. PP has spent more time in Northern Ontario in the last 2 years than their MP .He was just up there a couple of months ago.

So Jagmeet can afford Rolexes and BMW's and Versace, but not daycare? I thought it only cost $10? What happened?

[TheGruntski]

On the heels of Singh? That's a laugh, Global. Get yourself up to scratch in terms of Canadian affairs....SMH.

We would be happier if Toronto was only one seat.

It's rather ironic that a lot of the Conservative platform is now more beneficial for the middle class than the NDP's platform.
Universal pharmacare that is not UNIVERSAL a "free"dental plan that isn't FREE and a food lunch program in the school, that would come under the responsibility of the provincial governments.

Canadian know all things are expensive vote for a change you can pay less for food housing and intenent more cheaper your normal phone internet should be 12or 15 cad a month for 259 or 300 gbt it can be done like in Europe if you vote change and like the crtc be changed for more competitions Canada pay the highest in every thing among this G7 nation a monthly internet plan with free calls and texts in Italy is 10 euros which is 15 cad and WiFi House is 20 which is 30 cad because they are competition and not just 3 criminals running it please vote for charges the price of everything is killing people

[lochlanensign]

I can't believe the Liberals and the NDP are whining about losing a seat or two get over yourself I think the liberal NDP Coalition is a shameful excuse of poor governance

Meanwhile, trudeau, in his 4th vacation this year alone, is more worried about what he can wreck next..

[nooa]

When are you going to report on Turdo surfing while Jasper burned? When will he deign to visit? A tweet wont cut it.

[roypaq]

I have no respect for David Aikin, a Trudeau supporter

[kirkboivin]

Anyone surprised that the maps get redrawn before an election?

[vasvd]

Um, he’s been up there multiple times already this year, fellas.

[kellybrame-et]

Charlie Angus is as sickening as they get.

[TeresaSmyth-zm]

Pierre has strength in intelligence, integrity, for Canadian citizens. He shows strong leadership skills that will benefit Canada 🇨🇦 asap. We need to call out the hypocrisy going on in government.

[warallied]

lol. Thats like when Lays chips advertised their chips to have no trans fat in never did before..

Here is something similar: he went there before, but now you're saying in bad faith that he is after the redraw? Are you insinuating that he never should or you're trying to leave it vague knowing that people will draw a lot of wrong conclusions out of that?

news much?

[jordapen]

Charlie Angus is anything but reasonable with his attack fossil fuels.

[blondelynne]

Charles Angus is sn erratic ol man, good thing he's retiring!
