There are less than two weeks to go in the Ontario NDP leadership race and Marit Stiles, the sole official candidate, is so far the presumptive winner.

A few other caucus members - Sol Mamakwa, Chris Glover and Wayne Gates - said Tuesday they are considering a bid. But jumping quickly into the race is a tall order with the Dec. 5 deadline quickly approaching.

Contenders must also pay a $55,000 fee by the deadline and can't start fundraising until they are a registered candidate. “But my team and I, we've been just very focused on ... moving forward on our plan, which is to build the NDP, sign up as many members as we can, and start organizing to defeat Ford in 2026.”

Since beginning her campaign in September, Stiles said she has been travelling around the province and is focused on people who didn't vote in the last election, which saw turnout of about 43 per cent.

Yes ... that insignificant!

The most dead end career choice you could ever make ask Andrea

It’s a Maritocracy.

The wrong one too boot

Maybe Hamiltons mayor will resign and run. After all resigning her elected office and running for better opportunities is her thing

Pretty sure CUPE is the leader anyway

Better than Andrea. And anything is better than Doug....

Redundant....Liberals now fulfills socialist agenda

One question. Biped...or no?

Where do they find these bimbos ?

The rest realize that being the leader of a party that will never form a gov’t in this province isn’t worth it.

55k fee

She's my mpp. She shows up during the election cycle and then you never hear from her again, impossible to reach

She will be the leader of nothing!!!

They are picking a white person?!? NDP always pushes woke identity politics and now they are going with a white person

Sad state of affairs for the ONDP. Best you can do is an empty suit? May as well fold the tent and join the OLP onpoli

Who’d want to lead them muppets…they are a fucking joke of so called humans.

Don’t care bunch of socialists

All crooks

Ontario NDP leadership race deadline nears with only one candidate declaredMarit Stiles is the only registered leadership candidate so far and has garnered endorsements from seven of her NDP caucus colleagues Shocking If having only one leadership candidate means the ON NDP is united, good for them, I guess. Still, it's rarely a good sign if a party can't muster any competition for the leadership at all, even if there's a clear front runner.
