Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is bringing his campaign tour to Sault Ste. Marie next week.
He will be speaking to supporters at The Machine Shop on Tuesday April 8. Doors open at 6 p.m.
News of the event — A “Canada First Rally with Pierre Poilievre” — was posted tonight on the Facebook page of local Conservative candidate Hugh Stevenson.
Tickets to the rally are available HERE.
Poilievre, who last visited the Sault in January 2024, is locked in a tight two-way election race with Liberal Leader Mark Carney.
A poll released this week by Innovative Research has the Tories at 38 per cent of the vote to the Liberals’ 37 per cent, while Toronto Star polling shows Carney’s party on track to win 182 seats in the House of Commons, compared to 134 seats for the Conservatives.
Along with Stevenson, the local federal candidates in the riding of Sault Ste. Marie—Algoma are incumbent Terry Sheehan (Liberal), Laura Mayer (NDP) and Harry Jaaskelainen (People’s Party of Canada).
