The Ontario government and federal Liberal MPs are lobbying to have the new Defence Security and Resilience Bank located in Toronto.
Premier Doug Ford has scheduled a press conference for Thursday alongside Finance Minister Peter Bethanfalvy and chair of the Toronto federal Liberal caucus Julie Dzerowicz.
Sources told iPolitics the press conference would act as a public show of support to make Toronto the site of the bank, which is being established by NATO countries and allies in the Indo-Pacific region.
