0:00It's April 3rd. I'm Cory with the story. This is Canada News Today, driven by AI. Advanced polls just kicked off for three big-by-elections hitting the House of Commons on April 13th. We're talking two liberal strongholds in Toronto Scarborough, Southwest, and University. Eurosdale Plus, the hotly contested Terevon riding north of. Montreal. Those Toronto seats opened up after cabinet heavyweights bounced. Bill Blair stepped down to take the gig as Canada's high commissioner to the UK, and Chris the Afreelands chasing new paths, like advising Ukrainians. President on, economics, and running the road's trust as CEO. Terevon's a redo from last year's nail-biter. The Liberals edged it by one vote, but a court tossed the result over messed up mail-in ballots with. The wrong address. Supreme Court sealed the deal in February, so now it's game on again. If the Liberals snag all three, they'll hit 173 MPs and lock down a majority in the House.
1:00Advanced polls run Friday through Monday, 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Eastern time, hit your spot, or any elections Canada office, mail-in apps close Tuesday at 6 p.m. Eastern, and you need to be 18 or older, Canadian, with ID like a driver's license or a vouch from someone.
