Amid ongoing ethics investigation against Ratansi, some Liberals eyeing coveted nomination in Don Valley East for next election

Potential Liberal candidates in Don Valley East are waiting for the party leadership to say whether they will hold an open contest for the nomination or appoint someone without an election.

Liberal-turned-Independent MP Yasmin Ratansi, left, resigned from the Liberal caucus in November while facing allegations of conflict of interest and harassment. If the Liberal nomination opens up in Don Valley East, some potential candidates who could enter the contest include, among others, lawyer Paul Saguil, centre, and Ontario Liberal MPP Michael Coteau.
