Bonnie Crombie has announced her intention to run for leadership of the Ontario Liberal Party and she says she wants to bring the party back toward the centre. 

She said Premier Doug Ford’s administration is “too far to the right, the opposition too far to the left.” Steve Paikin, host of TVO’s The Agenda, had asked her on May 23 if the Liberals have been “too left-wing, too woke?” She replied simply, “yes.”
