It’s going to be a slow day on the campaign trail for the Conservative, Liberal and N-D-P leaders.
Stephen Harper, Justin Trudeau and Tom Muclair have no events scheduled.
Yesterday the three party leaders were all claiming victory in Thursday night’s debate — while Bloc Quebecois Leader Gilles Duceppe, who was left out of the proceedings, said it was “surreal” watching the others discussing the possible terms of a Quebec independence vote without his input.

It remains to be seen how many more leaders debates there will be.
Harper’s camp is refusing to take part in any debate organized by a consortium of big media outlets — and Mulcair says he won’t participate in a debate without Harper there.
Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne, meantime, stepped up her anti-Harper campaign yesterday, describing her Liberal government’s relationship with the Conservative prime minister as “dysfunctional.”
Wynne is backing Justin Trudeau for prime minister, hoping two Liberal governments will have a much better working relationship.
