National Post on PC member recruiting in Etobicoke Centre

A former candidate in Etobicoke Centre says PC leader Doug Ford paid for memberships for new Tories —contrary to party rules — and bused them in to help his preferred candidate, Kinga Surma, win the nomination in the riding where he lives. The losing contender for the Etobicoke Centre nomination, lawyer Pina Martino, filed a complaint, which included testimony from members recruited by Ford, said the former official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. But the party decided to allow Kinga Surma to remain as the candidate, the source said. National Post
