Premier Kathleen Wynne has told the Globe and Mail she is “very open” to a conversation about the practice of business and individuals giving money to the Liberal party to have access to the Premier and cabinet members. But, says the newspaper, she did not say more than that. The Globe calls the answer a refusal to ban cash-for-access fundraising. A legislative committee is reviewing the Liberals’ campaign finance reform, Bill 201. The proposed law would end corporate and union donations, and reduce contribution limits, but would not ban paying for access.
