This Saturday, we’ll find out who is the new leader of the federal Conservative party.
We spoke with Northumberland Peterborough South MP Philip Lawrence about his thoughts on the race, the values of his party going forward, and one major issue in the area.
When it came to who he thinks should be the next leader of the Tories, Lawrence said he has one person in mind.
With the worst of the pandemic behind us and an economic slump ahead, we asked Lawrence how he thinks the values of his party have shifted in recent years.
This week there will be a rally held in Cobourg in support of bringing back morning VIA Rail service to the area. Lawrence said it only makes sense to reinstate the train.
The Conservative Leadership race is set for September 10th, with the race expected to come down to either Carleton MP Pierre Poilievre and former Quebec Premier Jean Charest.
