I can hardly believe it!

When I first stepped into this race people told me I had no chance of raising the $300,000 entrance fee.

Fast forward to the final week of the campaign, and we have passed the TWO MILLION dollar fundraising mark.

I can’t say thank you enough. Thank you for believing in a political outsider. For taking a chance on someone who simply wanted to represent the everyday Canadians who are often overlooked.

You invested in building a movement of courage, compassion and common-sense. I am confident that you will see a return on your investment as we work together in building a united party.

We have shocked the pundits, many in our own party, and Canadians right across the country who had forgotten what happens when you give the grassroots a real voice.

We have built a movement that will continue to grow until we defeat the Liberals in the next election.

No matter what happens, this Monday we will all get to work building a stronger and more united Conservative party.
