Toronto Sun – Big bucks spent on Liberal leadership
TORONTO – So, what’s the price tag on the premiers’ office these days?
Try around a cool $3 million. Will that be cash or charge?
That’s the total raised by seven candidates who slugged it out for the job after former premier Dalton McGuinty called it quits almost a year ago.
Top fundraiser was Sandra Pupatello, who came in at $748,939. Next was now Premier Kathleen Wynne, who raised $707,728 for her successful campaign. She showed a slim, $8,000 surplus.
