Interim Liberal Leader John Fraser says it shows momentum, building on two recent byelection wins.
Several Liberal leadership contestants made various claims about how many members they were responsible for enlisting, but even without adding numbers from other contenders it adds up to more than 80,000.
Mississauga Mayor Bonnie Crombie’s camp said she had signed up 38,700 members. Liberal MP and former provincial cabinet minister Yasir Naqvi’s team said he signed up “north of 31,000” new recruits. Current provincial Liberal caucus member Adil Shamji said he was responsible for registering more than 12,000 new members.Article content
“We won’t be participating in this spin,” Liberal MP Nate Erskine-Smith wrote in a statement. “We’re focused on the hard work required to build a strong team in every corner of this province.”
