The stage was set for a heated French-language debate as federal leaders contended for the role of Canada’s next prime minister. Liberal Leader Mark Carney, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre, NDP leader Jagmeet Singh, and Bloc Quebecois leader Yves-François Blanchet were prepared to make their case and convince voters why they are best suited for the top job. However, Green Party co-leader Jonathan Pedneault was disqualified from the event due to strategic decisions made by the party.
During the debate, the leaders addressed pressing issues facing Canadians, including the ongoing trade war with the United States. Each leader had the opportunity to present their policies and ideas, hoping to sway voters in their favor. The debate served as a platform for the leaders to showcase their leadership skills and vision for the country.
With the election on the horizon, the French-language debate offered voters a chance to see the leaders in action and gain a better understanding of where each party stands on important issues. As the campaign continues, Canadians will be keeping a close eye on the performances of the federal leaders as they make their case for why they should be elected as the next prime minister.
