Federal leaders, including Trudeau and Scheer, in Quebec ahead of byelection
SAGUENAY, Que. — Federal leaders converged on Quebec’s Saguenay region Thursday, hoping to sway voters four days before a byelection in the area.
“What I’m seeing is people coming together,” said Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as he campaigned with Liberal candidate Lina Boivin.
“There is a sense of unity across Quebec and across the country.”
In a region that depends heavily on the aluminum industry, Trudeau stressed the importance of having an MP in the government ranks during a period of trade uncertainty between Canada and the United States.
