Scarborough-Rouge River is Wynne’s to Lose
SCARBOROUGH – One day before voters go to the polls, the riding of Scarborough-Rouge River is the Wynne Liberals’ to lose.
Since its creation in 1999 Scarborough-Rouge River has been a Liberal strong-hold, and a riding the Ontario PC Party has never won.
The Ontario PC Party and candidate Raymond Cho will take nothing for granted. We will continue to listen relentlessly and work hard to earn the trust of Scarborough-Rouge River residents.
