Where the party leaders spent their time in Week 10

Conservative Leader Stephen Harper made his first trip of the campaign to Newfoundland and Labrador, where the party holds a single seat. The Tories hoped to exploit what’s expected to be a tight race in Avalon between independent candidate Scott Andrews, the former two-term Liberal MP who left caucus over alleged sexual improprieties, and the new Liberal contender, Ken McDonald.

Harper made his third visit of the campaign to Richmond Hill, Ont., a new riding with no incumbent. The Conservatives held the previous riding but a projection at threehundredeight.com shows their candidate trailing the Liberal contestant. Harper spent two days in the Vancouver area, where one projection showed Conservatives behind in several ridings.

Tom Mulcair, leader of the New Democrats, toured six southern Ontario ridings where the NDP appeared to be struggling. Mulcair also stopped in the Toronto riding of Davenport, where the NDP in 2011 defeated a 49-year Liberal dynasty.

Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau made his third visit to the Brampton area, which until a Conservative sweep in 2011 had been solidly Liberal for almost two decades. Trudeau targeted Brampton Centre, a new riding where some polls showed the Grits neck-and-neck with incumbent Conservative MP and Minister of State for Sport Bal Gosal. Trudeau also visited five Greater Toronto Area and Toronto ridings held by Tories but where polls showed Liberals with strong support, including Vaughan-Woodbridge, held by Tory cabinet minister Julian Fantino.
