  • Tories raised $7.6 million in final months of 2020

The federal Conservatives say they raised more than $7.6 million in the final three months of 2020.

The figures come as all federals parties continue the work of prepping for a potential election this year.

The Conservatives say the first six months under their new leader, Erin O'Toole, netted $13.3 million for their party's coffers.

O'Toole says the high totals mean his party's message of a focus on getting Canadians back to work is resonating.

Financial results for the final quarter of 2020 are only just starting to roll in for the other parties.

Records for the Bloc Québécois show that party raised just over $961,000 in that period.
