It is accurate to describe Justin Trudeau鈥檚 move to trigger summer elections amidst the fourth wave of a global pandemic as 鈥渁 gamble鈥. The COVID-19 pandemic will play a central role during this federal campaign, but it remains unclear whether the evolution of the public health situation on the ground, including the on-going vaccination process and the debate about it, will shape electoral outcomes.
