Wonder how many of them are anti abortion
, if any, very hypocritical.

Abortion is a bad comparison on the premise of "body autonomy" in any case - it's not an infectious disease.

Probably will; this is just their way of "campaigning". A little like Faith Goldy making a spectacle of herself in the 2018 Toronto mayoral election.

The mere fact that this has to be explained is a sad commentary on how little the population is engaged in, or even aware of, the systems they proclaim to be so important.
A survey found that respondents were in favour of another day off. Whodathunk!

Apparently the NDP has double the cash it had in 2019.

The NDP plans on winning back some lost seats with an engaging leader, a seasoned campaign team — and lots of money
Touting a record of influence in the outgoing minority Parliament and a leader known for his social media presence, the NDP is planning to spend more on advertising alone than it did on the entire campaign in 2019.

So, what are the big ticket promises being offered by the parties
LOL. They really don't want to win, do they?
I don't really see a reason right now as to why I shouldn't vote Liberal.
I made note of the childcare aspect of the Conservative Platform above.
It does indeed appear they propose to renege on the Trudeau deal w/the provinces.

SMH.
Several deals are signed; Premiers have given ringing endorsements........
Maybe I'm misreading the public mood, but I don't see this is as a good play.

Nova Scotia provincial election results are coming in, and it looks like the polls and seat projections were way off. Could this be the same at the federal level? Are polls reliable over the summer?

Sounds like it might be a bit of a case of the parties inverting. The PCs campaigned on a fairly left wing platform compared to the governing Liberals.

The polls should have captured that though, right? I wonder if there was a last minute anti-Liberal switch not captured in the polls because of the election call on Sunday. The last polls had the NS Liberals with a 2% lead in popular vote over the PCs, but they are trending now to be under by 10%. That's a massive error for a poll to make, if all things were equal.

It also helps when the PC leader disowns the CPC and Erin O'Toole multiple times and emphasizes just how progressive he is!
