The concern is that leadership candidates will siphon away donations that would otherwise go to the party.
Recent figures released by Elections Canada paint a bleak picture of the party’s fundraising efforts in its first quarter, when it collected just $1.3 million.
These factors are all likely to be discussed when the council – the party’s governing body between conventions – meets Sunday to consider the rules for the upcoming race…
