The Conservative Party of Canada says it set a fundraising record in 2025, bringing in almost $48 million from more than 327,000 donations.
"These generous donations from people across the country demonstrate the widespread faith in our Conservative message of hope for a safer, more affordable Canada," Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre said in a statement.
According to Elections Canada, the party raised $28.1 million in the first three months of the year, $9 million in the second quarter and $4.2 million in the third.
The party says it is now filing its fourth-quarter fundraising report, which, it says, will show more than $6.4 million raised in the final three months of 2025.
"This generosity fuels our movement and helps us prepare to take on the Carney Liberals whenever the next election comes," said Poilievre.
Last week the Liberal Party released its annual fundraising numbers, saying that it too broke its own record by bringing in more than $29 million last year, almost double what it raised in 2024.

"This was a historic year, and it continues to be a historic moment for the Liberal Party," said Azam Ishmael, the party's national director, in a statement.
