Ontario Conservatives name Richard Ciano party president, hoping for that sweet Rob Ford campaign magic
Apparently hoping to learn a thing or two about, you know, actually winning elections, the Ontario Progressive Conservatives chose one of the masterminds behind Rob Ford’s triumphant mayoral campaign as the new party president.
