Two new Conservative hopefuls are racing to win the nomination in Carleton, Ontario—the riding once held by Pierre Poilievre. Sukhu Sekhon, a public servant, and Goran Samuel Pesic, a business exec and lobbyist, are already hitting the ground running, rallying support and hearing from voters on hot-button issues like housing, cost of living, and a proposed high-speed rail. Both candidates say Poilievre still holds strong local affection—and Sekhon even pledged to step aside if Poilievre returns. With the official nomination race pending, they’re laying the groundwork for what could be a pivotal moment in Conservative politics as they aim to represent a community still deeply connected to its former MP.
