Justin Trudeau was criticised for calling the Canadian election in 4th wave. “Why did you trigger an election in the middle of a fourth wave?” O”Toole asked Trudeau at the French-language debate in Montreal. Trudeau said he needs a mandate from voters. “We must give Canadians the choice,” he said. O”Toole said he believes the country can find reasonable accommodations for those who are unvaccinated, like rapid testing and social distancing.
Four provinces including Quebec and Ontario, Canada”s largest, are bringing in vaccine passports that require citizens to be vaccinated to enter places like restaurants and gyms. Trudeau called the election last month seeking to win the majority of seats in Parliament but polls show that is unlikely and that he might even lose power to O”Toole and the Conservative party. Trudeau had wanted to capitalise on the fact that Canada is now one of the most fully vaccinated countries in the world, but the country is now in a fourth wave driven by the Delta variant.
