LONDON, Ont. - Federal Liberals posted their best fundraising haul in a decade last year, filling their party's war chest just in time for this year's election.
The final numbers for the fourth quarter of 2014 are to be filed with Elections Canada by the end of the month.
But party insiders say the Liberal take for the last three months of the year topped $5.6 million, bringing the total for the year close to $16 million.
That's likely not enough to beat the Conservatives, who are on track to exceed their 2013 fundraising haul of $18.1 million.
But it will take a big bite out of the Tories' fundraising advantage, which the governing party has enjoyed since 2006, when corporate and union donations were prohibited and severe restrictions on individual donations were imposed.
The Liberals, who had been heavily reliant on donations from corporations and wealthy individuals, struggled for years to raise money under the new regime. But they have been steadily closing the fundraising gap since Justin Trudeau took the party's helm 21 months ago.
Trudeau and his 34 MPs are to get an update on the party's fundraising efforts today during the first of a two-day caucus retreat to plot strategy for next week's resumption of Parliament and for the election, scheduled for October.
Under Trudeau, the Liberals are again holding winter retreats outside of Ottawa another sign that the party is flush with cash. And the fact they're meeting in the midst of Ontario's battered manufacturing heartland is no accident.
Liberals were shut out of southwestern Ontario entirely in 2011, when they were reduced to a third-party rump. But strategists believe the area is now a fertile staging ground for a national comeback.

Federal Liberals' Fundraising Results Best In Ten Years

LONDON, Ont. -- Justin Trudeau is casting his refusal to be pinned down on economic policy as a sign he's more prudent and fiscally responsible -- and even more prime ministerial -- than Stephen Harper, whom he accuses of making it up on the fly.
The Liberal leader asserted Tuesday that the calamitous plunge in oil prices demonstrates how reckless Harper's government has been in spending a budget surplus that is rapidly vanishing.
"I think it's become fairly clear that because Mr. Harper put all his eggs in the same basket, counting on oil prices remaining high, he is now reacting and flailing and indeed making it up as he goes along," Trudeau said outside the first day of a two-day Liberal caucus retreat.
A Conference Board of Canada report Tuesday estimated that the drop in oil prices -- to less than US$50 from more than US$100 a barrel last summer -- will drain $4.3 billion out of federal revenues this year.
The repercussions of the oil price slide prompted Finance Minister Joe Oliver to announce last week that he's postponing the budget until at least April.
As a cornerstone of its platform for the federal election scheduled for October, the government has vowed that the 2015-16 budget will post a modest surplus after six years of deficits and it has already committed to spend most of it on a family tax-benefit plan.
However, the loss of billions in oil revenues has raised questions about the government's ability balance the budget and deliver on its pricey promises.
It's also raised questions about how NDP Leader Tom Mulcair, who began unveiling platform planks last fall, intends to pay for his proposals, including a $5-billion-a-year, national day-care program.
Trudeau has been heavily criticized for refusing to spell out policy details in advance of the election. But he cast that as virtue Tuesday, in light of the oil price plunge.
