That's how many people paid $20 to join the party that governed the province for almost 15 years before being toppled by Premier Doug Ford's Progressive Conservatives in 2018.

While the membership cut-off to join the Liberals was Dec. 2, the party waited until Monday to reveal how many people had signed up.

"I am so pleased to welcome so many new members into our party at this crucial moment in our history," party president Brian Johns said in a statement.
