The major parties are making their pitches to seniors – a demographic that is most likely to vote. Many seniors are now working into their 70s and 80s. The Conservatives are offering to let them earn up to $34,000 tax free, and keep their savings in RRSPs until the age of 73 (up from 71).

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre says Canada needs to protect its trade and sovereignty in the face of U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariff threats.

With likely just days to go before an election call, the party needs to find a way to connect… beyond the popular social media videos of its leader. How does it demonstrate it has the heft for one of the major issues: standing up to Trump? And: U.S. President Donald Trump had another high-level phone call about ending the war in Ukraine.
