Caroline Mulroney, daughter of former Prime Minister Brian Mulroney, is making her entrance into politics — though she’s going the provincial route. On Wednesday, Mulroney announced she’s seeking the Ontario Progressive Conservative nomination in the Toronto-area riding of York-Simcoe. “As a working mother of four, I know we need change,” the 43-year-old Mulroney says in a video announcing her candidacy. “I told my parents, ‘I think I agree with the Conservative party,’” he said in a 2015 Toronto Life interview. Peter Seemann, the riding association nomination chair, said Mulroney is the only candidate to have formally declared so far, but others have expressed interest.
