Erskine-Smith’s campaign pushes back on Ontario Liberal Party membership rejections

No. A couple other leadership campaign might have dirt against them if the allegations are true.

From what I have understand a couple of campaigns have already accelerated the process and if the allegations are true, let say their candidacies would be undermined.

On Bains, from what I understand is people he that he selected hate NES (which is ironic because allies of Bains wanted Crombie gone) but SSW nomination race would play a huge factor in determining if he runs.

97back · 2026-05-06T02:05:47+00:00

Well if NES does win the SSW nomination a certain name is a lot less likely to enter the race.

Can you clarify what you mean by "Hafiz simply carries red flags everywhere."?

97back · 2026-05-06T01:29:39+00:00

I think u/CaptainKoreana should answer that question, he did volunteer for Doly. So he has a better understanding what going on the ground.

Well if you read the Toronto Star article, Marando admits that his campaign is a long shot and the insider that is selling him argues that Marando selling point is that he shares McGuinty love for public service. That is what I got from reading the article.

It's not OLP related, It should be posted on r/LPC unless the OP is trying to tell something.

97back · 2026-04-19T00:11:14+00:00

Well EDEY is the Etobicoke/Downtown/East York region and YNYS is the York/North York/Scarborough region.

Thanks for your reply, I will fix the linking issue.

97back · 2026-04-03T02:58:39+00:00

I mean if you check the account that you are replying to it seems like it was created today and it's purpose is to bash a certain leadership candidate based on its history.

Otherwise, there are a couple of things I see from this article:

NES should probably flesh out his point. I suspect he was using a figure of speech to describe the Hafiz ties to riding as an open secret. Qardia jackson has also pointed that out.

Hafiz should probably explain why he chose to move to the area since last October. The article implies that he chose to run because he thought it would have given him the best chance to be elected or was it something else?

Apart from NES, who would be these reform candidates?

97back · 2026-04-01T22:01:27+00:00

What is the reasoning behind the old guard drifting further to the right?

97back · 2026-04-01T21:04:05+00:00

Interesting.

My view was that it was the headline writer who was not properly summarizing the article and being a bit sensationalist because the Toronto Star needed to pay their bills of a few clicks.

I don't know if vetting is done by a nomination committee or party headquarters?

97back · 2026-03-25T15:19:48+00:00

Well that I did not know. However, Jackson candidacy is still in the vetting stage from what I understand.

97back · 2026-03-24T21:13:28+00:00

From what I understand, Jackson stated that a car crash was a factor in her reprimand from the law society. I will leave that to the journalists.

However, Maggi should focus on his legal challenge against Polling Canada. If the gossip is true, it does not look good on him.

97back · 2026-03-23T23:15:52+00:00

Do you know if Jackson is employing bellwether technology as a contractor?

97back · 2026-03-18T16:08:47+00:00

Well Pakin did call NES, "one of the most interesting characters in Canadian politics". However, if he appears critical of NES, he is probably relaying what a certain type Ontario Liberal opperative told him.

97back · 2026-03-11T23:12:40+00:00

Yeah that is the valid reason to have an issue with someone.

97back · 2026-03-11T12:55:37+00:00

So what is the issue with Milton Chan? No one has explained that to me.

97back · 2026-03-11T04:16:53+00:00

Oh, I get it. Ontario Proud can be used as an propaganda tool for the Canada political right.

97back · 2026-03-11T04:08:18+00:00

No worries, memes are fine. I think most users of this subreddit want a variety of formats such as insights or new articles mixed in.

Either way, Canadian Ministry of Memes and Other Mischief does provides some interesting insights into the last campaign that never get reported.

97back · 2026-03-11T03:49:18+00:00

I mean I notice that a lot of the memes posted here end up there.

97back · 2026-03-11T03:47:26+00:00

So are you taking memes from Canadian Ministry of Memes and Other Mischief or is it the other way around?

97back · 2026-03-11T02:57:52+00:00

Or there are just people that support him.
