OTTAWA — Rona Ambrose, widely seen as the presumptive front-runner if she ran for the Conservative leadership, has decided she’s not entering the race.
A source with knowledge of the decision said Ambrose had wrestled with the choice right up until Wednesday afternoon. The source said Ambrose isn’t closing the door on a return to politics at some point down the road, but felt this wasn’t the right time. Ambrose had been strongly urged by many in the Conservative Party to run, including by caucus members. Party sources said she would have had senior organizers quickly join her campaign and would have had little trouble raising money.
Not surprising a woman would choose to avoid the inevitable abuse, misogyny and toxic politics she already decided to leave.
So, the cons last hope is out. So sad.
Rona Ambrose is a progressive conservative, not a Reform member.
Boooooooooooo
Promote scientistic advancement, tech to build climate innovations (denials dumb) Oil revenue can build a green infrastructure. Jobs jobs are created with innovation. Tax the wealthy. Fiscal conservatism can also be kind. Don't embrace phobics. A plan with a vision & a budget
And there's why the conservatives won't win next election
Never liked her since she became a GLOBALIST. we need a flat earth person to lead our party.
Not good.
