Midway for the Ontario election campaign, some parties still fight with bitches

As Ontario’s Snap winter election campaign reaches its half, the main enemies of progressive conservatives are pushing themselves to voters, while voters in office are a significant lead.

Progressive Conservative Leader Duck Ford called before the next standard election date on February 27, and some visitors call it a strategic move that aims to capture his competitors.

Ford has said his government needs more mandate from Ontarians, and US President Donald Trump’s four -year fees and four years.

But other party leaders have accused Ford of inviting the Snap election for his own benefit, claiming that it was unnecessary and wasted money.

Liberal leader Bonnie Kroombi admitted that it was difficult to find out when an election could come last week.

“He was talking about election calls. We don’t know when the time will be,” he told reporters at a campaign in Toronto.

Prior to winter, Ford refused to reject 2025 votes.

Although some were expecting an election in the spring, the window for a provincial competition was rapidly short, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced his resignation as liberal leader and announced that he would improve the federal parliament until late March – then a federal election seemed firm.

It was widely expected that Ford would not have elections simultaneously-and he was on a road inspection as a reason for the voting of the United States.

The Snap call at the end of January gave the opposition parties less time than expected to unite, and convinces the voters to be a time for a change.

The poll analyst Philip Fourneer said the short campaign was a clear strategy from Ford.

“There is no doubt that PCS has decided to have a minimum length of time for this election,” Fourneer said, “He serves as a 338 Canada headmaster, a referendum and voting website.”

The four major parties and the entire candidates have announced that the NTP reached the milestone for more than a week, liberals and greens this week.

Both Grombombi and NTP president Marit Styles, who were seen as Ford’s main contestants, issued several announcements in the first two weeks of the election, in which taxpayers would have no details.

“Crombombi has said that he has to do some more work to create its site, because” all of that is a little sudden to spend “.

He said he would soon release the entire site of the party at a press conference on Wednesday. The NTP has said so.

Meanwhile, Green Party leader Mike Shreyer is the first and the same leader who released a full cost base.

“We want to be honest and obvious with the people of this province because they are worthy government,” Shreater said at a stage launch event on Wednesday.

The conservative political strategist, Gayla Ifelis, did not buy the argument that the opposition parties did not fully develop their plans.

Fordin’s former spokesman Ifellis said, “There has been talk that there is going to be the earliest election.” For some time in politics, anyone who has worked in politics knows politics … you go to work and you are starting to be ready. “

Iphlis admitted that both the NTP and the liberals appear to have no “infrastructure” to respond to such a situation quickly, and they do not have the number of people behind the scenes to put a comprehensive base together.

“I think this is a part of the problem why this is full of cost and completely detailed sites,” he said in a phone interview.

Ford has not released the full cost base for PCs.

But as prime minister, he was in control of the provincial budget when he was in office, and his government would have prepared a provincial budget at a full -fledged public spending at the beginning of 2025.

The poll analyst Farnier said that early election gambling seems to be paid.

“Since the campaign begins, we have not seen that if there are numbers, Duck Ford’s PCs must win a landslide majority in the Queen’s Park.”

Based on the total analysis of the recent polls, PCs have won 45 percent of the popular votes and will hold 100 seats.

At this point, it is difficult to determine whether NTP or liberals will be extra when creating official opposition.

Although the liberal votes are expected to have the edge on the NTP, they are likely to split the votes, while the PCs will win “almost everything”, said Fourneer.

The competition, which claims to cost $ 189 million in the Ontario election, will see voters going to the election in a rare winter election.

If the NTP, if the liberals and the greens are surprised, it is even more, so the average voter is sued.

Lydia Miljan, a professor of political science at Windsor University, decided to call an election in Canadian newspapers earlier this month, which will “unsafe” on the standard date.

He said that the short campaign leading to the February referendum – some people can reduce the participation of the voter’s participation – some winter holidays and others, when traveling depending on the weather, they can find less motivation to travel to their local polling booth.

The first half of the election campaign is low cheerful. Campaign events from all sides are placed in organized numbers, and no one has large -scale rallies or congested events.

The leaders’ debates are scheduled for the worst times of Valentine’s Day and Family Day evening.

But as far as IFelice is concerned, the opposition has no excuse to get a muted response to this opportunity.

“When you are an opposition party, your goal is to have a clear agenda about your retreat against the government, and your job is to let the Ontariyans know what alternatives and keep the government under control,” she said.
