BURLINGTON, ON
REVISED
For the federal Conservatives in Burlington – the die is cast.
The new memberships are in the hands of the Conservative Party headquarters where they are being vetted.
The three people seeking the nomination—Emily Brown, Connor Fraser, and Shaheryar Mian—have done as much as they could. The decision now goes to the party membership to determine who their candidate will be.
Connor Fraser has challenged the other two candidates for the nomination to a debate – little too late for that.

The Burlington Conservative Association has yet to set a date for their nomination meeting at which the candidates may be given a chance to speak – the main event is for the members to vote. Our understanding is that a member of the party has to be in the room to cast a ballot.
Politics being the game that it is – often sees rule changes.
In the past things at Conservative party events have gotten very rowdy.
Not that the federal Liberals are any better – some of the Liberal MP’s are in the process of looking for a way to get rid of the leader they have.
It will be sometime in 2026 before things settle down in Ottawa once the federal election has taken place.
Premier Ford is looking for a way to send everyone a cheque for $200
In the meantime – inflation is easing down; the bank interest rates are coming down; rents are said to be inching lower – and the provincial Conservatives are said to be planning to send everyone in Ontario a cheque for $200 sometime in the New Year. The problem with that idea (it is really a bribe – but that’s another issue) is that the province doesn’t have a list with the names of everyone in the province.
