TORONTO, Shawwal 18, 1436, August 03, 2015, SPA -- Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper triggered an election campaign Sunday and set the vote for Oct. 19, when Harper and his Conservative party hope to earn a fourth term after almost a decade in power. The prime minister dissolved Parliament Sunday in a visit to the governor-general, the ceremonial representative of Queen Elizabeth II, Canada's head of state. Analysts say if Harper,56, won the election, he would become the Canadian first prime minister since 1908 to win four consecutive elections. --SPA 00:29 LOCAL TIME 21:29 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
