Poilievre bringing in record fundraising dollars, more than previous Tory leaders
The Conservative party has set a fundraising record for a non-election year under the new leadership of Pierre Poilievre, and it is outpacing other federal parties.
Elections Canada data show that during the last three months of 2022, the Conservatives brought in over $9.7 million from more than 66,000 donors. That compares to the Liberals' $5.8 million and the NDP's $2.5 million, with the Bloc Quebecois bringing in a little less than $900,000 and the Greens a little more than $800,000.
It is insane how much he's bringing in. But - money doesn't win elections, it must be spent wisely. Hopefully he can put this money to solid use.
