Conservative Leader Erin O'Toole focused his campaign on families this morning.

He's announced a plan that would allow new parents to earn up to one-thousand dollars per month from remote or part-time work without it affecting their maternity or parental leave payments.

N-D-P Leader Jagmeet Singh used a stop in northwestern Ontario to criticize anti-vaccine demonstrations planned in front of hospitals today.

He says he'd beef up the Criminal Code to deter protests close to a hospital or health-care workers.

Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau will speak later today in Vancouver.
