Breaking: Patrick Brown fined $100,000 by federal Conservative party
OTTAWA—Brampton Mayor Patrick Brown has been fined $100,000 by the federal Conservative party amid the ongoing probe by Elections Canada into his ill-fated campaign for the party’s leadership, the Star has learned.
Both are now in the hands of Elections Canada investigators, who have been in contact with the party as recently as this month, multiple sources told the Star. Using city hall resources to pay for a leadership bid would violate the prohibition on municipalities contributing to leadership contests.Conservative leadership candidates have until early next year to fully disclose their campaign expenses, so it is unknown whether Brown’s leadership financials might provide more detail.“Our office reviews every complaint it receives to determine whether or not the allegations fall within the scope of its mandate,” it said in a statement.
He’s not the only candidate who has been fined — both winner Pierre Poilievre and Leslyn Lewis were docked $50,000 for failing to appear at the party’s third debate. Those included 78 paid for with sequential money orders — which is not allowed — and all appeared to come from the same person.
