Federal Party Leaders to Participate in French Debate Tonight, English Debate Tomorrow

The leaders of five of Canada's federal political parties will have a chance to sway voters on television before election day.

With under two weeks left until voters cast their ballots, millions of Canadians are expected to tune into tonight's French debate, and tomorrow's English debate. 

Conservative Leader Erin O'Toole, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh, Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau, Bloc Quebcois Leader Yves Francois-Blanchet and Green Party Leader Annamie Paul will participate in both events. 

People's Party of Canada Leader Maxime Bernier won't be taking part, as he didn't meet the criteria established by the independent leaders' debate commission. 

Topics up for discussion will include climate, pandemic recovery and Indigenous reconciliation.

Tonight's debate will start at 8:00 p.m. and both debates will take place at the Canadian Museum of History. 

Tomorrow's debate will start at 9:00 p.m.

A full list of options for watching and streaming the debates can be found here
