Liberal leader Justin Trudeau, needing a boost to revive his campaign to become Canada’s prime minister, came out swinging in an election debate on Thursday, but his opponents delivered their own blows, suggesting there was no clear victor.

Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau was quick to say that Canada is in a recession, presuming the country is at risk to continue with Harper at the helm.
Harper acknowledged in Thursday’s debate that Canada might be in recession.
Analysts say the election is a toss-up and Harper’s Conservative party faces an uphill battle to form another majority government in Parliament.
In response to media, representatives of both the NDP and Liberal party categorically dismissed the suggestion that their respective leaders had proposed such a tax. Many polls show the party virtually tied with Mulcair’s New Democrats.
“I think Mulcair is winning the debate”.
Tom Mulcair’s New Democrats would implement a pan-Canadian food strategy called “Everybody Eats” in which they lay out a number of initiatives including investing in rural communities, grow farm incomes, ensure agriculture’s sustainability, ease barriers for new farmers and support agricultural marketing boards.
Former colleagues of Harper say his long-term objectives are to kill the as soon as extensively entrenched notion that the Liberals – the celebration of long-time leaders Pierre Trudeau and Jean Chretien – are the pure get together of presidency in Canada, and to redefine what it means to be Canadian.
Harper has managed to nudge a traditionally center-left country to the right since coming to power in 2006.
This, coupled with the creation of a bigger, fairer, automatic, and tax-free monthly benefit to assist families with the high cost of raising their children, are part of the plan to improve the lives of Canadian families.
Nelson Wiseman, a College of Toronto political science professor, stated Harper carried out nicely within the debate regardless of repeated assaults and can maintain onto his base help.
However, he appeared more confident when the debate turned to the Canadian military mission against ISIS. It wasn’t broadcast on the major networks and was held just five days into the campaign.
Mulcair said Harper is trying to deceive Canadians about the health of federal finances and is hiding the fact the country is still in deficit – not in surplus, as the governing Tories claim.

Other topics discussed included energy, the environment and national security. “It would be absolutely foolish for us not to go after this group before they come after us”, he said.
