What the Ontario election candidates need to do for tonight's debate | CBC News
Briefly

As polls reveal a strong lead for Doug Ford, the impending debate in Toronto serves as a critical platform for opposition leaders to diminish his support. With the election just ten days away, Ford, alongside NDP, Liberal, and Green leaders, will strive to maintain his momentum, particularly focusing on his stance regarding U.S. tariffs. Analysts advise Ford to continue promoting his narrative as the premier capable of addressing these economic challenges. This debate holds heightened significance as it is poised to attract a larger audience than prior debates.
Ford should stick to his campaign message that only he as premier is best suited to deal with Donald Trump's tariff threat, some analysts say.
His job tonight, say some analysts, therefore should be to stick to the relatively simple message he has hammered throughout the campaign.
Polls suggest these actions appear to be paying off politically.
Tonight's debate, taking place in Toronto just 10 days before voters go to the polls, will be seen by a much wider audience, raising the stakes for each candidates' performance.
