Doug Ford remains entrenched as Progressive Conservative Party leader and Ontario premier following his third consecutive majority victory in the 2025 snap election, with no formal leadership review or credible internal challenge scheduled before year-end. Recent polling shows his personal approval at historic lows near 24 percent amid a hotel expense scandal involving caucus members and a ministerial resignation, yet the PCs stay competitive in voter intention surveys and Ford has publicly reaffirmed plans to seek a fourth mandate. Internal dissent, including the June ouster of a caucus chair over pensions and scandals, has not translated into organized efforts to replace him. The short timeline to December 31 limits the scope for convention-driven or caucus-triggered removal absent a sudden crisis.
