| Description | TORONTO — Prime Minister Stephen Harper didn't do Ontario Progressive Conservative Leader John Tory any favours with his 18 Senate appointments today.
There had been widespread speculation Harper would appoint a veteran Conservative member of the Ontario legislature to the Senate, freeing up a seat for Tory in the process.
But the two Senate vacancies from Ontario went to Conservative Party stalwart Irving Gerstein and arts patron Nicole Eaton.
Tory hasn't had a seat in the legislature since losing the 2007 Ontario election, and hasn't been able to convince one of his 25 caucus members to step aside for him. |
