Ontario's four major party leaders will take part in a live studio debate on Feb. 17, ten days before voters go to the polls.

Progressive Conservative Leader Doug Ford, NDP Leader Marit Stiles, Liberal Leader Bonnie Crombie and Green Party Leader Mike Schreiner will take part in the televised debate, which runs from 6:30-8 p.m. ET. 

You'll be able to watch on CBC television, stream the debate online and get live updates, or listen on CBC Radio. There will also be an ASL version of the debate.

This is the second of two debates ahead of the snap winter election, which is set for Feb. 27. The first takes place on Friday, in North Bay, Ont., and will focus on northern issues. CBC News will also have live coverage of that debate.  

David Common, the host of CBC Radio's Metro Morning, will moderate the Family Day event. Siobhan Morris and Colin D'Mello, the Queen's Park Bureau Chiefs for CTV News and Global News, will join Common to pose questions to the candidates. 

There will not be a live audience for the debate. 

The debate is being run by a broadcast partnership consisting of CBC, CTV, Global, TVO, CHCH, CPAC, CityNews, CP24 and OMNI News.

It will also be simulcast on various radio stations across the province.
