Those parties raised:

The NDP, meanwhile, received cash from 14,699 donors.
The Greens had 4,456 contributors, the Bloc 2,149 and the People’s Party 3,024.
Earlier this year, Elections Canada revealed the Tories had raised $35.2 million in 2023 compared to the Liberals’ $15.6 million and the NDP’s $6.8 million.
