McKenney releases updated list of campaign donors

By CityNews Ottawa

Mayoral candidate Catherine McKenney disclosed an updated list of donors who have given more than $100 to their campaign as of Oct. 19 at 5 p.m. 

The list of donors includes many new names since McKenney first released their donors list, ten days ago, on Oct. 10. The updated list, with names and the total amount each person donated, is available on the candidate’s website

This latest donor disclosure also comes as McKenney raises over half a million dollars from more than over 4,000 donations recorded to their campaign. 

McKenney is calling on one of her opponents for mayor, Mark Sutcliffe, to release his donors' list. 

“It’s disappointing that Mark Sutcliffe is refusing to release information about who is financing his campaign, until after people have voted,” they said. “Sutcliffe’s lack of transparency fails the public accountability bar and does nothing to increase citizens’ trust in city hall.”

Names on McKenney's list include Ed Broadbent, Catherine McKenna, and Tyler Meredith who most recently served as director of economic strategy and planning for Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland and is campaign co-chair of McKenney’s campaign. 

McKenney will release their donor list a third time at 10 a.m. on Oct. 24, the day of the municipal election.
