It seems that Thomas Mulcair’s first move is to go for the young ones. CTV reports the newly-appointed NDP leader wants to target young voters in the next election.

He says the NDP’s biggest challenge is to draw in people who believe in the NDP ideals but who don’t vote.

Over 200 000 protesters gathering at Place du Canada for Thursday's blockbuster day of action against tuition increases.

A commission backed by multiple political party members recommended the legalization of doctor-assisted euthanasia.

The Dying with Dignity report was presented in the National Assembly yesterday according to the Montreal Gazette.  It recommended legalizing doctor-assisted suicide in cases where adults are suffering from terminal illnesses linked to unbearable physical and psychological pain.

Ottawa’s decision to give the RCMP control over its spending lead to negotiations with British Columbia about keeping Mounties within the province.

Six months ago, B.C. politicians said they would rid the province of Mounties if Ottawa did not give it more control over local RCMP operations.

They threatened to instate their own police force if their demands were not met.

People are being urged by the Montreal police to avoid driving on Thursday. Demonstrators that are protesting tuition increases are expected to jam the streets. It would be recommended to take public transit in order to get around or to just go by foot.

Even if you don't use your car on Thursday, detours will most likely occur since the route some of the rally organizers have provided might change.

The march comes two days after the provincial budget has confirmed their plan to increase tuition. However, police are optimistic that this march will not have the same end results as the anti-police brutality march.
