THE LEDE

The two-day Canada Investment Summit has arrived, and Premier Ford is taking a list of major projects to investors. Meanwhile, the Grits are debt-free. Over in Mississauga, it was a who’s who kind of weekend.

Seen in Mississauga: Natalia Kusendova-Bashta, Nina Tangri, Deepak Anand, Sheref Sabawy and Silvia Gualtieri at Carolyn Parrish’s launch event on Sunday. (Premier Doug Ford — who promised Parrish “an army” of support — had privately made clear to his Mississauga caucus that he wanted them behind her in a race against Bonnie Crombie.)

During her speech, Parrish said: “It’s much better to get along with senior levels of government than to insult them and fight with them.” She added: “I get along very, very well with Mr. Ford,” drawing a “woo” from Kusendova-Bashta.
