2,500 delegates to determine the next premier of Ontario
Premier Dalton McGuinty’s successor will be chosen by Liberal delegates as young as 14 at a leadership convention that promises a winter weekend filled with political drama.
With six well-funded candidates already in the game, the Jan. 25-27 face-off at Maple Leaf Gardens should generate major buzz for the party that has governed Ontario since 2003 but is trailing in the polls.
The convention — with delegates and candidates wheeling and dealing in a process tailor-made for gavel-to-gavel media coverage — is the final piece in the complicated puzzle of electing the second most powerful politician in Canada.
