US President Donald Trump kicked off a day of campaigning in Michigan with a rain-soaked rally in Lansing.

Most polls show Trump trailing Democrat Joe Biden in a state that Trump won narrowly in his 2016 victory.

Trump told the thousands gathered to hear him that ``seven days from now we're going to win the great state of Michigan.''

With just a week left until Election Day, Joe Biden is making his closing pitch to Americans with a message on unity and a call to rise above division.

Speaking in Warm Springs, Georgia, the Democratic presidential nominee says national divisions have grown under President Donald Trump.

Biden also has offered a hopeful call for healing in the face of the, quote, "lasting wound" the pandemic has left on the US.

Court decision expected on injunction challenge to Alberta teachers’ back-to-work law

A judge in Edmonton is expected to rule Friday on whether to grant an injunction against an Alberta law that forced striking teachers back to work last fall. The request comes from the Alberta Teachers’ Association, which argues the province’s legislation ending the strike should be temporarily halted while the courts review its constitutionality. The issue was argued during a two-day hearing earlier this month. Association president Jason Schilling has said that if the court grants the injunction, the union would be in a legal position to resume strike action. He added that any decision t
