Less than two weeks into the federal election campaign, the Conservative Party has already ousted four candidates in Ontario, Quebec and British Columbia.

On Wednesday evening, Stellantis confirmed it would introduce a temporary shutdown of its auto assembly plant in Windsor, Ont., between April 7 and April 21.

Automaker Stellantis announced that it is halting production on its Windsor, Ont., manufacturing facility for two weeks, with a notice saying Trump’s tariffs were the reason.

Late Tuesday evening, the Conservatives ousted a third candidate from being their party’s nominee but did not say why he had been removed.

The Senate passed a measure seeking to end the emergency declaration Trump used to justify tariffs on Canada linked to fentanyl, but the resolution will likely remain symbolic.

A White House statement released after Trump announced the policy said existing tariffs on Canada ‘remain in effect’ — including exemptions — ‘and are unaffected by this order.’

One political analyst says he believes the NDP “have a legitimate shot” at winning races in Edmonton Strathcona, Edmonton Centre and Edmonton Griesbach.

The independent Leaders’ Debates Commission said Tuesday five parties each met two of three criteria to participate in the debates on April 16 in French and April 17 in English.

The statement of claim alleges the plaintiffs have been denied justice due to strict time limits on criminal proceedings set by a landmark 2016 Supreme Court of Canada ruling.

Marquis did not elaborate what posts specifically were referenced, but criticized the Conservatives for their decision saying the party had ‘cut loose a devoted ally.’
