We’re counting down the final days until the election on Monday and the federal leaders are all doing last-ditch campaign stops on the West Coast to secure some final votes.
Today, NDP federal leader Thomas Mulcair stopped by the Vancouver Convention Centre at noon to a jubilant crowd of reportedly 5,100 people clad in orange (some carrying “stop Harper” signs). Mulcair was introduced by Stephen Lewis and there were musical performances by Dan Mangan.
Here are 21 pictures of the rally.
