Bonnie Crombie won the Liberal leadership in December 2023 but has not sought a seat in the legislature until now.

The Progressive Conservatives believe they can hold off the Liberal challenge in Mississauga and re-take all of the city's six seats, including Mississauga East-Cooksville .

Some observers say even Crombie ’s own seat isn’t a guarantee.

In Brampton , the Liberals were always going to face an uphill battle in this election.

The NDP has held seats there more recently than the Liberals , and the contentious Peel divorce may also be a factor.

As for that brand, Crombie sees it as one of public service, which she calls her “niche”.
