Hi John,
We just wrapped up our fundraising for the second quarter and those numbers will be reported to Elections Canada soon, but I wanted you to be the first to know how it went and what's next.
John, our team will be working on filing these numbers over the next couple of weeks, but I crunched some of them quickly and can tell you that our digital donations are up AT LEAST 25% from last year.
Let me tell you exactly what that means for our movement.
It means that instead of Pierre Poilievre dominating the air waves this summer, we can finally fight back. This week, because of your support, we're releasing a brand-new ad to arm voters with the truth about today's cost-of-living crisis that decades of Conservative and Liberal governments have gotten us into.
Here's why it’s our first big ad out the gate. Research shows that most Canadians are heading into the next election with one big issue on their minds: The cost of everything going up — groceries, rent, mortgages, utilities, and more.
People are getting crushed. And this wasn't inevitable. The cost of living is up because Big Corporations in Canada have way too much power. There's only one way to address that and there's only one leader who has the strength and vision to do it – Jagmeet Singh.
Watch his message to voters here. This ad will be seen millions of times across the country, but I wanted you to be one of the first, John.
Thank you again for your unwavering support as we take on this fight.
Appreciate you,
Lucy
