| Description | The Ontario Liberals released an audio recording that appears to implicate Progressive Conservative leader Doug Ford and Etobicoke Centre PC candidate Kinga Surma in a scheme to pay for PC memberships in 2016.
Liberal campaign co-chair Deb Matthews said the audio released Thursday was an excerpt of a longer recording taken October 2016 while Ford and Surma — then a PC nominee for the area — were speaking with people at a Tim Hortons in Etobicoke.
According to the Liberals, the recordings are evidence that Ford broke PC party rules and violated Ontario election laws against making secret donations. PC memberships cost $10 for one year and must be paid for with individuals’ own funds or those of an immediate family member. |
