New figures show the Manitoba Progressive Conservatives finished last year with $1.2 million in debt and other liabilities.

The Tories spent roughly $1 million more than the NDP last year, with much of the money going to salaries, polling and advertising. The extra debt means the Tories have a steeper hill to climb to get out of debt and build up a war chest for the next election, slated for 2027, as well as any byelections.Pooles says the party’s financial situation is “OK” and will improve, due in part to the province’s 25-per-cent refund on campaign expenses for parties and candidates.“A lot of our constituency associations have money in their bank accounts as well,” Pooles said Monday.
