Who are the Ontario Liberal leadership candidates and what did they promise?

Here's what the Ontario Liberal Party leadership candidates promised over the last 8 months.

The Ontario Liberal Party is set to announce their new leader 

It’s been a heated race these last eight months. Members of the party cast their vote last weekend, and the results will be hand-counted and revealed to much fanfare on Dec. 2.

A lot of what each candidate pledged in their individual platforms does overlap—they are all members of the same party with the primary goal of beating Premier Doug Ford during the next election. However, there are a few differences.

Here are some of the things each candidate promised to do if elected:

Health care: Crombie’s plan touts a “patient-central” approach to health care by eliminating loopholes that allow corporations to bypass the Canada Health Act and clearing the surgical backlog “without resorting to private for-profit surgical centres.”

She also said she would provide 10 paid sick days for everyone, recruit more family doctors and expand nurse practitioner-led clinics, expand hospitals and deliver wage parity between staff in home, community, long-term and acute care sectors.

Crombie also said she would give personal support workers and registered practical nurses a pay bump.
