The Conservative Party of Canada, under the leadership of Pierre Poilievre, reported an unprecedented total of $35.2 million in donations, marking the highest annual fundraising amount ever recorded by a Canadian political party.

“These results prove support for my common sense plan to axe the tax, build the homes, fix the budget and stop the crime,” Mr. Poilievre stated in a news release.
