The next federal election in Canada is being held on Sept. 20, as reported by CBC. According to the latest federal election poll by Leger, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the Liberal Party of Canada are leading with 36% of the vote, seven points ahead of Erin O’Toole and the Conservative Party of Canada, at 29%. According to the CBC Poll Tracker, there is a 51% probability that the Liberal Party will win a majority, and a 93% probability that they will win the next election.
