As rumours continue to swirl about the possibility of an upcoming federal election— the Conservatives and NDP are calling for a pause.

“My biggest concern right now is the potential fourth wave of COVID-19,” Conservative Leader Erin O’Toole told reporters Monday, adding, “We really do think the health and economic security of Canadians must come first.”

NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh also said Monday that while his party is “ready to fight” were an election to be called, “it’s not the right thing to do.”

Their comments came as more than 2,500 people signed an online petition calling on governor general Mary Simon to reject any request by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau for a snap election.

The next federal election is currently scheduled for Oct. 16, 2023.
