• A deadly SUV attack at a Filipino street festival in South Vancouver killed 11 people and injured over 20, prompting federal party leaders to adjust their campaign events and offer condolences. NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh, who had attended the festival minutes before the attack, grew emotional while urging Canadians to stand in solidarity against hate. Liberal Leader Mark Carney, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre, and Green Party Co-Leader Elizabeth May also expressed their sympathies, with Carney cancelling planned rallies.
  
  
• Polls predict the Green Party could be wiped out in the upcoming federal election, with Co-Leaders Elizabeth May and Jonathan Pedneault both facing tough battles to hold their seats. Despite rebranding efforts and a renewed focus on climate, the Greens are struggling amid voter concerns about affordability and global instability, with some of their support shifting to the Liberals.
  
  
• The Liberals, Conservatives, and NDP each outlined different visions for the federal public service, with the Liberals proposing a productivity-focused spending review, the Conservatives promising cuts through attrition and reductions in consultants, and the NDP rejecting cuts in favour of new investments funded by a corporate surtax. Experts noted that all parties left key questions unanswered about how they would implement changes, particularly regarding AI and workforce impacts.
