Those requirements include registration and compliance fees totalling $300,000 and the signatures of 500 party members. Candidates approved by the party face another deadline on April 29, when they'll be required to submit their final payments and documentation to appear on the ballot. Candidates hoping to become the next leader of the federal Conservatives have until the end of the day Tuesday to submit their application paperwork — although it likely will take several more days before the party confirms the full list of candidates who met the deadline.

“It’s fair to say that there’s smoke, but we don’t know that that smoke is a fire,” said Lyle. “How many of the people in that crowd are fiscal conservatives that like what he says, how many people in that crowd are convoy protesters, how many in that crowd are crypto currency people? I asked both the Patrick Brown and Jean Charest campaigns how they can possibly overcome Poilievre’s crowds and both said that though the sheer number of people is impressive, they still think they can win. Having crowds is better than not having crowds at your rallies, but the Conservative Party elects its leaders using a complex voting system that includes ranked ballots and a points system for each riding in the country. So something is connecting but what that something is we can’t tell just by looking at the people in the room.” I never expected him to leave the rest of the pack in the dust this early in the campaign. Taylor reveals that Brown is making promises — an apology to Tamil Canadians, investments in cricket and a new visa office in Kathmandu — calculated to appeal to specific communities, but is not putting them on his campaign website or social media accounts.

He promises to mandate the Bank of Cnaada to fight inflation and to keep government spending in check so that ordinary Canadians have more to spend. In the evening at a Toronto bar just steps from where the Leafs are playing the Flyers, Poilievre is holding his own capacity crowd captive not with athletic seats but promises of a brighter, better future. He’s laying out his plan to remove the “gatekeepers” he says are pushing up the cost of homes in Canada’s biggest city. After a brief exchange, Charest is off to the next media appearance, and I ask the Carters why they are backing him. Throughout it all, Charest maintains that he is running to win and can beat Poilievre and his large crowds. Before we can get too far into the discussion, the waiter stops to speak with Charest in French and thank him for his work in politics.

Sources close to Brampton Mayor Patrick Brown, who is widely seen as one of Poilievre’s main rivals, have focused their campaign on member sales and have largely ignored media coverage so far. Another option is for many Poilievre enthusiasts to actually vote for leadership and make sure the winner is crowned on September 10. According to Ginny Roth, a spokesman for the Poilievre campaign, about 46,000 people have confirmed attendance at Poilievre’s event as potential leaders traverse the country endlessly.

Letters to the Editor should be exclusive to The Globe and Mail. Include your name, address and daytime phone number. In the midst of last summer’s wildfires, I finally read into climate science, thinking this would comfort me. It wasn’t perfect by any means, but was much better than the deplorable situation that existed in the United States. New laws would be a vote generator for the party that terminates this practice. Canada should have a comprehensive energy plan that sees oil-importing provinces wean off foreign oil and replace it with Canadian product in the short term. Re Manchin Calls For Closer Energy Relationship (April 13): “More than half of the oil the U.S. imports comes from Canada.” But how much foreign oil does Canada import, and what parts of the country are doing the importing? Indian Councils highly approved the changes and were actively consulted, with many of their suggestions incorporated. Is it incapable of handling the problem? Let’s vote to have more colour. We are in fiscal, environmental, security and social trouble; it’s embarrassingly red.

But for Brown to win, a source close to the Poilievre campaign estimated he would need to sign up more than 100,000 new members — and get them out to vote. According to Ginny Roth, a spokesperson for the Poilievre campaign, some 46,000 people have RSVP’d to Poilievre’s events as the leadership candidate criss-crosses the country. That suggests Poilievre is drawing from a larger pool of support than many political observers have expected.

He talks about fighting inflation so that people can live again and allowing those who build homes to afford them. He jokes about Justin Trudeau and liberals in general, and is applauded for dismissing the CBC and promising to sell its headquarters just a few blocks away to pay for affordable homes.

All Candidates Leave a Net Negative Impression with Canadians; Liberal Voters More Favourable to Charest than Conservative Voters.

However, it could also result in a fracturing of the party on the right, given that four in ten (40%) Conservative voters have an unfavourable view of Charest. Jean Charest enters the race with decades of political experience, including having served as Premier of Quebec for nearly a decade. However, these three candidates also elicit the highest proportion of negative feedback: Charest (34%), Poilievre (31%) and Brown (22%), followed very closely by Leslyn Lewis (21%). All other candidates garner negative opinions in the 17%-18% range. The data also reveal that, on balance, Canadians have unfavourable opinions of each of the Conservative Party leadership candidates – that is, towards those about whom they know enough to venture an opinion. Nearly six in ten (57%) don’t know who they want to win.

These are some of the findings of an Ipsos poll conducted between April 14 to 19, 2022, on behalf of Global News. For this survey, a sample of 1,001 Canadians aged 18+ was interviewed. The Ipsos poll conducted exclusively for Global News found 20 per cent of Canadians surveyed think Poilievre will win the race, rising to 37 per cent among Conservative voters.

In this case, the poll is accurate to within ± 3.5 percentage points, 19 times out of 20, had all Canadians aged 18+ been polled. And the other one, the exact opposite is true.
