This is the best summary I could come up with:
Elections Canada records, coupled with publicly available information, show the Conservatives have been naming new candidates almost every week since the beginning of the year, especially in Ontario and British Columbia.
Pollster Shachi Kurl, president of the Angus Reid Institute, said being able to attract new candidates is a sign of the Conservative Party's political momentum.
The party came in for criticism last week when a former journalist dropped out of the race for the nomination in Aurora-Oak Ridges-Richmond Hill, claiming the process had been "corrupted."
They include Montreal city councillor Craig Sauvé (who is set to run in Liberal MP David Lametti's former riding of Lasalle-Émard-Verdun), Mayor of Sooke, B.C.
Five of the party's incumbents have already announced they're not reoffering: Richard Cannings, Randall Garrison, Charlie Angus, Carol Hughes and Rachel Blaney.
In a media statement, Bloc press secretary Julien Coulombe-Bonnafous said the party has nominated Simon Bérubé in the Quebec City riding currently held by Liberal cabinet minister Jean-Yves Duclos.
