O’Leary coming to Kelowna to speak to Conservative Party members

KELOWNA – Federal Conservative leadership candidate Kevin O’Leary will be stopping in Kelowna this weekend.

The event is only open to card-carrying Conservative Party members.

The reality TV star will be at the Coast Capri Hotel Saturday from 10:30 a.m. until 11:30 a.m. for a members reception.

Seeming to follow in President's Trump's footsteps, the Canadian business mogul says that by working in television, he is more well known than current Prime Minister Trudeau and able to connect with a younger demographic.

Currently there are 14 candidates in the Federal Conservative leadership race.
