This riding has had its share of ? MP's in the past. This yr. there is no incumbent but I think the CPC hold the seat. |

Kellie Leitch decided to not run again although cpc quickly nominated a new candidate Terry Dowdall who had been mayor of Essa township a small municipality in the riding. The riding likely stay conservative although interesting to see how the greens do in these ridings. |

Leitch's "toxicity" is no worse than Doug Ford's was last year; and it didn't stop Jim Wilson last year, nor would Jim Wilson's subsequent ejection from caucus stop Leitch's successor this year. And sure, "Leitchism" *could* logically deflect off into PPC support--though I don't know whether their running a former Libertarian candidate is the way to do it... |

Simcoe-Grey has long been a Conservative seat as long as the right was united. It's unclear how Kellie Leitch's departure will play though - her anti-immigration views would likely have fans here especially as you move south from Highway 26. However, there are many retirees from the GTA in the resort towns who would likely find it too toxic. Regardless, Terry Dowdall appears to be a better fit overall, which should get the Conservatives back up over 50% (and closer to what Jim Wilson got in 2018). The national Liberal campaign is not well-liked here especially with SNC-Lavalin. Should be a Conservative hold no matter what. |

I disagree that Kellie Leitch was unpopular here, but otherwise I agree with @M. Lunn's analysis. This has become a blue area and it should stay blue. |

This is a pretty safe Conservative riding and with Kellie Leitch not running again (she was probably too toxic for Collingwood, Blue Mountains, and Wasaga Beach where you have a lot of well to do GTA transplants) should make this even more solidly Tory. |
