Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau during a visit to Toronto on Thursday.

Poilievre said Canada has become a dangerous place in Trudeau's eight-year reign, with hate crimes rising to 150 percent.

He said that the economy is in shambles and Canadians are being pitted against each other.

Poilievre said Trudeau's weak law has allowed criminals and other violent elements to freely roam on the streets and attack people.

It is worth noting that Poilievre is also constantly raising the issue of home heating, citing a recent survey that 70 percent of Canadians want carbon tax exemption on all types of fuel for home heating.

He said that the Conservatives would remove it if they came to power.

Last month, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced the exemption of home heating oil from carbon tax for the next three years but the Conservatives want this exemption to also apply to natural gas for home heating.
