Canadians are heading to the polls today to decide whether to extend the nearly decade-long rule of Conservative Party leader Stephen Harper.

Trudeau has accused Harper of Islamophobia for seeking to ban Muslim women from covering their faces with the niqab, or veil, while taking their Canadian citizenship oath.
