Election! Rallies, reporters, and tax havens

Election day in Canada is only two weeks away.


All the major parties have been holding rallies across the country, with some Conservative supporters bringing “Do you believe the polls?” signs to a party event.


Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre is facing scrutiny over limiting media access, and Liberal leader Mark Carney is facing questions about his time working in the private sector and billion-dollar funds he oversaw in tax havens.


Rosemary Barton is the CBC’s chief political correspondent. She’s here to catch us up on the latest developments in the campaign.


Plus, we get the story behind how two Liberal party staffers planted ‘stop the steal’ buttons at a conservative conference.
