Welcome to the 2019 leaders debate, happening May 1 live in the Here & Now studio.

Starting at 7 p.m. NT, Liberal Leader Dwight Ball, NDP Leader Alison Coffin and PC Leader Ches Crosbie will tell Newfoundland and Labrador voters how they'll deal with the issues of our time.

In the one-hour format, each leader has a predetermined amount of time to answer questions from reporters from CBC News, NTV and The Telegram, which are together organizing the debate. NTV's Lynn Burry is moderating the debate.

As with previous elections, the media partners decided to include only leaders whose parties previously held a seat in the House of Assembly.

In the run-up to May 16, hear what participants have to say about how they would lead Newfoundland and Labrador.

Ball, Crosbie and Coffin joined NL Alliance leader Graydon Pelley Tuesday night in a two-hour debate that the Newfoundland and Labrador Federation of Labour hosted.
