mr. trudeau's main threat, the conservative leader erin o'toole., according to some data i was reading, 40% of canadians didn't know enough about him to even form an opinion about him, and he is facing accusations that he has strategically moved to the left after portraying himself as a staunch conservative. has that hurt his credibility, and how would he govern versus what he's said to voters? >> yeah. he probably has that credibility deficit. erin o'toole was the veterans affairs minister under the stephen harper government, the previous prime minister. he ran for the leadership of the conservative party as basically the hard-right candidate, saying he was true blue, and he was going to scrap the carbon tax, and he was going to bring forward gun reforms so that gun owners would no longer have to abide by the trudeau rules. so he reached out to social conservatives, the anti-abortionists in his caucus, and he won a decisive leadership. and then, you know, basically the day after he won the leadership race, he told people he had been elected as a p

opposition leader erin o'toole tried to use that to his advantage, openly criticising this mr trudeau's disaffected liberal voters into conservative ones. five weeks ago mr trudeau was after a majority, saying the minority parliament was, quote, unworkable. tonight canadians did not give him the majority mandate he wanted. in fact, canadians sent him back with another minority at the cost of $600 million and deeper divisions in our great country. it may be a new day in canada, but people here have barely taken notice. it is the same old leadership. six weeks of campaigning and very little has actually changed. samira hussain, bbc news, montreal. the ministry of defence has apologised for a data breach which may have compromised the safety of dozens of afghan interpreters who worked for british forces. more than 250 people seeking relocation to the uk — many of whom are in hiding — were mistakenly copied into an emailfrom the mod, in which their names and some profile pictures were visible. defence secretary ben wallace has launched an investigation into how the breach occurred. a vigil
