OTTAWA — The federal Conservatives say they raised more than $7.6 million in the final three months of 2020. 

The figures come as all federals parties continue the work of prepping for a potential election this year. 

The Conservatives say the first six months under their new leader, Erin O’Toole, netted $13.3 million for their party’s coffers. 

O’Toole says the high totals mean his party’s message of a focus on getting Canadians back to work is resonating. 

Financial results for the final quarter of 2020 are only just starting to roll in for the other parties.
