TORONTO — Ontario’s election campaign isn’t slowing down for Victoria Day.

Progressive Conservative Leader Doug Ford will make a campaign stop in his home turf, Etobicoke North, before door-knocking elsewhere in Toronto, including former Liberal premier Kathleen Wynne’s old riding of Don Valley West.

The current Liberal leader, Steven Del Duca, is visiting the city of Clarence-Rockland, east of Ottawa, to assess damage resulting from a powerful weekend storm that triggered a local state of emergency.

NDP Leader Andrea Horwath, who has been making virtual appearances after contracting COVID-19, doesn’t have anything planned, but her federal counterpart Jagmeet Singh will be out in her stead.
