In their meeting today, Trudeau and Payette will likely talk about a time for Parliament to reconvene.

There are just days before Canadians head to the polls, and Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau is making his way to Calgary for a campaign rally. 

Richmond Liberal MP Joe Peschisolido says that "unfounded allegations" in a case involving his former law firm will hurt his re-election chances and should be dismissed.

UCP MLAs and Premier Jason Kenney are out drumming up support for the federal Conservatives, but some political watchers say it could make for trouble depending on the outcome of the vote.
