Ontario party leaders prep for debate

Today is a quiet day on the campaign trail with the party leaders taking the day off to prep for tomorrow's debate.

Yesterday, both the NDP and Liberals promised to explore a four day work week if they win the election.

The Liberals say the proposal would start as a ``demonstration", examining work-life balance.

The NDP say they would establish a commission to develop recommendations on implementing a pilot project.

The Progressive Conservatives say decisions on work weeks should be made by the private sector.
