On Oct. 7, two weeks before Canada’s federal election, Conservative Party Leader Andrew Scheer said he would unveil a fully-costed party platform with “plenty of time” for Canadians to review it.

Scheer is expected to announce his party’s official platform today at Tsawwassen Springs. Why have the Conservative’s waited so long to announce their platform?

Jagmeet Singh outlined six priorities for an NDP government, which include a national pharmacare and dental plan, a super-wealth tax and a price-cap on cellphone and internet fees, as well as tackling housing affordability and student debt.

Singh says his tax plan won't send investors fleeing the country. He says his plan will save businesses money on things like pharmacare

He was an hour late, but Conservative leader Andrew Scheer announced the Conservative party platform in Tsawwassen a few moments ago.

The platform titled: “Andrew Scheer’s Plan For You To Get Ahead” spans 103 pages and includes chapters on jobs, climate change, and a wide spanning section called “more help at home” that outlines the Conservatives’ plan for ethics, immigration, firearms, health, privacy, veterans and more.
