After making the rounds in Toronto yesterday, Prime Minister Mark Carney is off to Wakefield, Que. to unveil what his office is billing as “new measures to protect Canada’s land and waters” later this morning, after which he’ll drop off the radar for the rest of the day. (11:25 a.m.)

Meanwhile, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is booked in for a mid-afternoon press conference in Peterborough, Ont., which is expected to focus on “transportation,” according to the advisory. (2:30 p.m.)

Elsewhere on the ministerial circuit: Canadian Identity Minister Marc Miller joins Toronto-area Liberal MP Chi Nguyen to share the details of fresh federal support for what the notices describes as an “important arts and culture organization,” which it does not identify by name. (10:30 a.m.)

Later today, Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree will drop by the Rouge Valley Recreation Centre to promote his government’s ongoing push to “keep Canadians safe,” including “preventing gun and gang violence,” with Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow, Secretary of State (Combatting Crime) Ruby Sahota and “other federal and municipal representatives” also expected to make an appearance. (2 p.m.)

Moving east to Fredericton, N.B., Secretary of State Wayne Long, whose responsibilities include the Canada Revenue Agency and financial institutions, and local Liberal MP David Myles will reveal new investments in “local projects” throughout Atlantic Canada that will “support Canadian innovation and defence” as part of the Defence Industrial Strategy unveiled earlier this spring. (10 a.m. AT)

(9:15 a.m. MT)

Also on the radar: Industry Minister Mélanie Joly hits the spring fundraising hustings in Saint-Sauveur, Que., where she’ll make the rounds alongside local Liberal MP Tim Watchorn at a $500-per-ticket reception hosted by the Federal Liberal Association of Les Pays-d’en-Haut. (6 p.m.)

ON AND AROUND THE HILL

Canadians United Against Hate founder Fareed Khan teams up with representatives of Doctors Against Genocide, Eye Witness Gaza, Doctors for Humanity, Independent Jewish Voices and Canadians in Support of Refugees in Dire Need to call for “immediate Canadian action,” including an “independent inquiry, sanctions and arms embargo,” in response to reports alleging the “torture of a Palestinian baby (to) extract confessions from his father,” who “remains in Israeli detention,” the advisory notes. (11:30 a.m.)

Later this afternoon, Public Health Agency of Canada officials will hold a “virtual technical briefing” on the launch of the Vaccine Impact Assistance Program, which, as the advisory notes, was formerly called the Vaccine Injury Support Program and managed by a third-party contractor, but will now be run by the federal government.
