I’m here at a hotel in Hamilton in Ontario where the PM and Liberal Party leader Mark Carney is just about to make a statement on the tragedy in Vancouver.
He cancelled his morning election event here, and it appears he will continue with an adjusted last day tour of the country that had been planned.
His main rival, Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre, appears to be continuing with a schedule of election engagements in this province, including in his own riding.
The PM had already planned to visit Vancouver today, but it seems that while he is likely to go there, it will be so as prime minister at a time of horrifying tragedy, rather than campaigner.
As we wait to hear from the prime minister, here's a look at how other political party leaders in Canada are reacting to the news of the deadly incident that unfolded in Vancouver on Saturday night:
Image source, PoolCanadian Prime Minister Mark Carney is expected to make a statement soon, in which it is likely he will address the deadly incident that unfolded at the Lapu Lapu festival in Vancouver overnight.
The BBC understands his comments will be made from the city of Hamilton in Ontario.

The organisers of the Vancouver Sun Run - Canada's largest 10km road race - say the event will go ahead as planned on Sunday morning.
Thousands of people are due to attend in just a few hours - more than 40,000 people took part last year, according to the race's organisers.
The route is in a different part of the city to where the incident at the Lapu Lapu festival took place.
Speaking earlier, acting police chief Steve Rai said a "lone male" was suspected to have driven a vehicle into a crowd at the block party, but he stressed that "there is no further danger to the public".
In a post on social media, the Vancouver Sun Run says that police and city officials have given "their assurance that this was an isolated incident", adding the run will go ahead as planned "with an increased police presence".

As we have been reporting, a man drove an SUV into crowds at the Lapu Lapu Day festival, near East 43rd Avenue and Fraser Street in south-east Vancouver.
Earlier, the BBC spoke to Vancouver City Councillor Peter Fry, who said the area is more residential and has fewer tourists than the central city. As a result of this, he said, the layout of the event was more "porous" - a potential factor in the severity of the incident.
It’s now the middle of the night in Vancouver - here is what we now know about what happened at the Lapu Lapu Day festival.
We are expecting the next update from police on the situation at 10:00 local time.

In a statement posted on the Royal Family X account, the King says: "Our hearts and prayers go out to all those whose lives have been shattered by such a desperate tragedy and we send our deepest possible sympathy at a most agonising time for so many in Canada."
Image source, ReutersPhilippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr says he is "shattered to hear about the terrible incident" at a Filipino community event in Canada, Reuters reports.
As we've been reporting, Vancouver police say nine people have died after a car drove into the crowd at a festival marking Lapu Lapu Day - a day that is considered one of the biggest celebrations in the Philippines.
Image source, Getty ImagesWe're going to take a closer look now at one particular detail provided by Vancouver Police at a news conference earlier - that the suspect was caught at the scene by people in the crowd.
Acting police chief Steve Rai said the suspect is a "lone male" in his thirties.
"That male was taken into custody at the scene by the crowd," and people in the crowd then immediately called the police, he said.
"We then took custody of the subject," he added.
Rai said he would not speculate on how people in the crowd managed to catch and hold the suspect, but added it was his understanding they did so "prior to police arrival", but that officers arrived "shortly thereafter and took custody of him".
Regional health authority Vancouver Coastal Health has confirmed a "code orange" mass casualty event, according to Canadian Press.
This code is part of a policy set by the British Columbia Ministry of Health Services. It comes into effect after a large-scale event means extra support is needed.
The code colour doesn't indicate how serious the event is, but rather the type of event.
Image source, ReutersMore witness accounts about what happened at the Lapu Lapu festival are coming in to us, this time via the Associated Press.
Abigail Andiso says she called emergency services after witnessing the car run into people, and saw what she estimates as 20 people on the ground.
"Everyone is panicking, everyone is screaming, and… nobody knows what to do," she says.
James Cruzat, meanwhile, says he heard what he believes was the car revving up and then a loud bang. He also saw multiple bodies the ground.
"A lot of people were screaming, 'oh, don't go on the road, get off the road', because there might be another car," he says.
Dale Selipe, who was with Abigail and James at the festival, says she initially thought there had been a gunshot. She saw at least four children among the victims.
"It's very sad because it's supposed to be a time... for everybody to just go out and have fun."
Earlier, we reported that Vancouver Police would give an update in the morning local time.
Now, according to the Globe and Mail, external, the news conference will be held at 10:00 in Vancouver (17:00 GMT, 18:00 BST), with Vancouver Kensington MLA (Member of the Legislative Assembly) Mable Elmore joining.
Vancouver Police have also been sharing information on social media over the past couple of hours, so we might hear more about the event before the news conference.

The deaths at the Lapu Lapu festival comes as Canadians are preparing to head to the polls in the country's federal election on Monday.
As we reported earlier, Vancouver Police say they don't know anything about the incident being linked to the vote, in which PM Mark Carney - who took over the role only months ago - will seek to keep the Liberals in power.
National polls suggest the party has maintained a narrow lead entering the last stretch of campaigning.
