It is a soap opera meets a reality show meets House of Cards.

The March 10 Progressive Conservative leadership contest is can’t-miss viewing in Ontario with a provincial vote looming this spring.

Boasting a cast of characters that includes iconic political names like Ford and Mulroney, a discredited former leader seeking redemption, a patrician party stalwart who has lost twice before, and an energetic newcomer from the far right, the stage is set for a blockbuster.

Here are the five candidates vying for the chance to unseat Premier Kathleen Wynne’s Liberals in the June 7 election:

老彭这像照得可不太好。
 
老太太拒绝和马鲁尼联手反对布朗参选,得分啊。。
如果进入最后一轮的是她俩,那布朗的票绝大多数会转到老太太名下。。

老向嫌钱少,一万CFC刀全压在老太太身上。。接盘吧九哥。。:)
现在得壓cfc金币啦。cfc刀乐被土豪按周贬值ing:buttrock:

Ontario Progressive Conservative leadership candidate Tanya Granic Allen on Sunday moved to distance her campaign from the apparent support of a man with noted ties to white nationalist movements.

The Toronto Star reported on the weekend that Paul Fromm, director of an organization called the Canadian Association for Free Expression and anti-immigration activist, tweeted, "Check out Tanya Granic Allen for PC Leader. I just joined." Fromm included a link to Granic Allen's campaign website, where voters can register their support for the candidate.

The Star article also reported that Granic Allen did not respond to requests for comment on Fromm's tweet.

On Sunday, however, Granic Allen — a staunch social conservative who has said she was inspired to run by controversial University of Toronto psychology professor Jordan Peterson — sent out a torrent of tweets disavowing Fromm and criticizing the Star for its report.

"Shame on [the Toronto Star] for giving a platform to this repugnant KKK guy, whose name I refuse to mention, and whom I strongly condemn," she wrote.

Fromm has been pictured at various events in the past with U.S. white supremacist leaders such as former Ku Klux Klan member David Duke.

"If any of this guy's KKK ilk tries to join the PC Party, their membership applications will surely be rejected. And rightly so!" Granic Allen continued.

She went on to say that Fromm is not a registered member of the Ontario PC party, adding, "No place in our party for white supremacists."

As Granic Allen was issuing her informal response, her PC leadership rival Caroline Mulroney sent a tweet of her own, saying she is "outraged to see white nationalist Paul Fromm involved in our leadership race.

My campaign will challenge his membership. There is room for many different viewpoints in our party, but not racist ones. I call on Tanya and all candidates to join me in denouncing his involvement," she said.

While the three other leadership candidates were active on their social media accounts Sunday, none opted to jump into the fray as of midday.

Granic Allen responded directly to Mulroney, tweeting that Mulroney "should not be giving a platform and attention to a KKK guy by mentioning his name which I refuse to do."

Is it possible that Patrick Brown, who resigned as Ontario Progressive Conservative leader, then joined the race for his old job three weeks later, could now be winning that strange contest?

Internal polling from Brown’s campaign obtained by the National Post late Saturday suggests he moved from second to first among the five candidates for the leadership last week, though with well under the 50 per cent needed to clinch victory on the first ballot.

The number of undecided voters also remained high. And there are still five days of campaigning left until the online vote starts, with the second of two debates to come next Wednesday.

As well, when the three days of poll results are combined, it shows a tight race among decided voters at the top between Brown and former provincial politician Christine Elliott. Businessman Doug Ford trails in third place, lawyer Caroline Mulroney is well behind him, and parents’ advocate Tanya Granic Allen lies in fifth, according to the survey.

Still, if the internal polling numbers are accurate, they point to a remarkable political comeback for Brown, who is no longer even a member of the opposition Conservative caucus in Ontario.

The member of provincial parliament from Barrie, Ont., quit as leader Jan. 24 after CTV News reported that two women had accused him of sexual misconduct while he was a federal MP 10 years ago. He later was thrown out of the Tory caucus and removed as its candidate in his riding.

Brown has called the misconduct charges false and malicious, is suing CTV for libel and, just two hours before the deadline for entering the leadership a week ago, shocked the party by flinging his hat in the ring.

The Mainstreet Research poll contacted between 4,412 and 6,096 paid-up members of the party each day from Feb. 20 to 22. The survey’s margin of error was not immediately available, meaning the figures should be read with caution.

When the three days are totaled, Brown and Elliott are deadlocked at about 28 per cent of decided voters, followed by Ford at 22 per cent, Mulroney at just over 14 per cent and Granic Allen at less than seven per cent. Undecideds represented 18 per cent of all respondents.

But Brown campaign organizers are touting changes each day over the three days as evidence their candidate has momentum.

His total grew steadily from 840 members on Feb. 20 to 1,420 on Feb. 22, while Elliott garnered 1,399 and 1,521 in the first two days, before slipping to 700.

However, province-wide popular vote totals may not equal success in the election. In a bid to ensure the winner has broad support, the party is assigning each riding 100 electoral votes, divided proportionately according to the total each candidate gets in that district. So a wide margin in a few ridings – Brown, for instance, is believed to have a strong lead among south-Asian Canadians in some constituencies around Toronto – would not necessarily produce victory.

When asked who they would support on the second ballot — which will be held if no one captures over half the votes on the first — between 24 and 25 per cent of decided voters chose Elliott, Brown or Ford, 19 per cent Mulroney and 7.5 per cent Granic Allen.

Balloting is scheduled to take place from March 2 to 8 in the one-member/one-vote election, with the results announced on March 10. The winner will lead the Conservatives into Ontario’s June 7 election, with polls now showing them well ahead of the governing Liberals.

Support among decided Conservative leadership voters, according to a Mainstreet Research poll of 15,447 members:

Christine Elliott: 28.85%

Patrick Brown: 28.29%

Doug Ford: 22.24%

Caroline Mulroney: 14.15%

Tanya Granic Allen: 6.46%
