Bonnie Crombie started her political career at 47 and is now in the midst of a whirlwind election campaign at 65 .

The Ontario Liberal Party leader has been open about her upbringing, to show the contrast with Doug Ford , who grew up in a well-off family.

Her father was an alcoholic and her parents split up when she was three , but she says she never felt that she lacked anything.

Crombie ’s childhood really shaped her childhood, she said, breaking down in tears.

Crombie raised some eyebrows recently on the campaign trail with a joke about challenging Ford to a pushup contest.

Crombie served as MP for Mississauga-Streetsville from 2008 to 2011 .

Her son, Alex , says his mom is someone with an almost unlimited social battery.

She also has a dry, sarcastic sense of humour, he says.
