Bonnie Crombie Loses Bid for Seat, Vows to Stay as Liberal Leader

 

In a surprising turn of events, Ontario Liberal Leader Bonnie Crombie lost her bid for a seat in the Mississauga East-Cooksville riding. Despite her efforts to flip Peel Region seats from PC blue to Liberal red, Crombie was defeated by her PC opponent, Silvia Gualtieri.
