(MNI) London – All timings are subject to change.

Monday 28 April:

• Canada: Federal election takes place, with PM Mark Carney looking to secure a fourth consecutive term in office for the governing centre-left Liberal party. The opening and closing of polling stations to elect 343 members to the House of Commons is staggered across Canada’s numerous timezones. Results are likely to start filtering through after polls close at 2200ET (0300BST, 1100JST) on the West coast. The election has been dominated by the sharp deterioration in economic and diplomatic relations with the United States. The furore has seen a major shift in public sentiment, with the Liberals recovering from a massive deficit in opinion polling at the start of the year, at the expense of the main opposition Conservatives.
