According to CTV‘s Don Martin, Andrew Scheer’s Official Opposition Conservative party has outpaced Justin Trudeau’s Liberal party despite the fact that the Liberals currently form the government.
Today, Martin tweeted: “Interesting that the Official Opposition Conservatives raised over $8 million from 50,000 donors in the first quarter of 2019. Liberals, despite being the government, only pocketed $3.9 million from 33,000 donors.”
