The 2018 Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario leadership election was held on March 10, 2018, due to the resignation of party leader Patrick Brown on January 25, 2018, following allegations of sexual misconduct. Winner Doug Ford narrowly defeated runner-up Christine Elliott on the third ballot with 50.6% of allocated points.

The Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario leadership election was scheduled for 3 months before the 2018 provincial election scheduled for June 7. It came after a turbulent year of disputed and allegedly fraudulent nominations contests across the province for local PC candidates.  In two of these contests; Ottawa West—Nepean and Scarborough Centre the nominations were overturned after Brown's resignation and Brown's own nomination in Barrie—Springwater—Oro-Medonte was cancelled. At the time of the leadership election Newmarket—Aurora and five others remained under active investigation by the party and Hamilton West—Ancaster—Dundas remained under police investigation.

According to Article 23.1 of the PC party constitution, when there is a vacancy in the position of leader, the party caucus chooses an interim leader to serve until a new leader is elected in a leadership election, which must be held within 18 months of the vacancy occurring, and in which all party members can vote. Party president Rick Dykstra told the media on January 25 that "a leadership election will take place at such time as the PC party shall determine in its discretion". The party executive met on January 26, 2018, following the caucus election, to determine whether to have a leadership election before the provincial election, and if so, how it would proceed, or whether to have the interim leader lead the party into the election, and called the leadership election for March 2018.

Rules and procedures

All party members are eligible to cast votes by preferential ballot using electronic balloting, provided that they are members in good standing by February 16, 2018. To be eligible, one must be at least 14 years of age, a Canadian Citizen who is a resident of Ontario, and pay a $10 membership fee with personal funds (i.e. no corporation or union funds may be used).

The vote was weighted so that each of the province's ridings that has more than 100 votes cast are allocated 100 electoral votes; ridings in which fewer than 100 party members vote were weighted, but instead had the votes counted as individual votes. The lowest-ranked candidate were dropped from the next round as ballots are counted, and the first candidate to get 50 per cent of the votes was declared the new leader.

Candidates must be nominated by at least 100 party members, must agree to abide by the party's existing platform for the next election, and must be approved by the party's nominations committee as a PC candidate for the 2018 provincial election.

Method and Electronic Security
The voting method is solely electronic voting with no other access methods. To cast a ballot,  a three-part validation-vote was employed. First each eligible member had to register to vote with a code sent via regular mail. Second, each member who had registered had to validate their identity with one piece of government issued identification by uploading an image. Third, each qualifying member was provided a second access code to use during the voting period via the internet. The system was criticized by all candidates as overly complicated and difficult for elderly members and those with difficulties using or accessing computers.

Doug Ford and Tanya Granic Allen raised concerns over the security and legitimacy of the vote. Ford stated he believed "party elites" and "the establishment" would try to steal the election and said "there should be security cameras on the servers".  Past leadership candidate Frank Klees said he had grave concerns about the integrity of the vote.

Withdrawn candidates

Patrick Brown

Patrick Brown, {{#expr:()-(1978)-(()<(05)or()=(05)and()<(26))}}, is the MPP for Simcoe North (2015–2018 as a Progressive Conservative and 2018–present as an independent) and a former Conservative MP for Barrie (2006–2015). He was the leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario from 2015 until his 2018 resignation triggered this leadership election. Brown was expelled from the PC caucus hours before registering his candidacy on February 16, 2018. On February 21, 2018, the party's nominations committee approved Brown to seek the leadership in a 3 to 2 vote.

Brown planned to run on the full "People's Guarantee" platform, including a carbon tax which would fund the platform, and which had been the intended 2018 election platform prior to Brown's resignation.

Brown withdrew ten days after announcing his candidacy, claiming that he and his family had been subjected to threats for entering the contest. His withdrawal occurred hours after reports surfaced that as leader he had directed top party officials: "get me the result I want", in a riding nomination that has subsequently become the focus of a Hamilton Police Service investigation for alleged fraud and also the same day that the Integrity Commissioner announced an investigation of Brown's travel expenses and other alleged financial improprieties.

title: Sigvard Pettersson

text:
Sigvard "Kallinge" Pettersson (1928–2002) was a Swedish footballer and a centre forward in the classical 2-3-5 formation, who during his career in Landskrona BoIS represented the club at 313 occasions and scored 298 goals – an average of 0.95 goals per game. Through the first 99 years of Landskrona BoIS' history, only Harry "Hacke" Dahl and Sonny Johansson have scored more goals for the club. Pettersson's nickname "Kallinge" came from the small Blekinge village where he grew up. During the later part of his many years in Landskrona BoIS he played together with Hasse "HP" Persson in the front. In the 1980s, Pettersson was running a smaller tobacco shop in Landskrona. He died in 2002 at age 73.

title: Segunda División de Costa Rica

text:
Costa Rican Second Division (also known as Liga Motorola for sponsorship reasons) is a professional league incorporated in 1921 for association football clubs in Costa Rica. It is the country's second-tier/division football competition, which is contested by 18 clubs and operates by a system of promotion and relegation.

History
Many teams for Costa Rican soccer have passed through this Division, such as Deportivo Saprissa, C.S.  Cartagines, C.S.  Liberty, C.S.  Uruguay de Coronado, Orión F.C., Municipal Puntarenas and Deportivo Barrio México. The second division has been called over the years as the First Division "B" for Ascent and the Major League of Soccer.

The first Second Division championship was held in 1921. The Moravia Sports Union was the winner of that contest, which was only participatory until 1934. From 1935 to 1963, the Second Division champion played a promotion league with the last place in the First division.

title: Passport validity

text:
Passport validity is the length of time a passport can be used to travel to another country, or be used as a valid form of identification within or outside the issuing country before its date of expiration.

Adult passport validity map

Adult passports

There is an increasing trend for adult passports to be valid for ten years, such as a United Kingdom passport, United States Passport, New Zealand Passport (after 30 November 2015) or Australian passport. A five year period of validity is also common (as used to be the situation for a Papua New Guinean passport or currently for an Indonesian passport). Some countries issue adult passports for periods between five and ten years, such as the Cuban passport, which is valid for six years.

Optional validity period
Some countries allow adult applicants to choose a passport validity, usually 5 or 10 years, at a varying price scale, e.g. costing more for 10 years than 5 years. These countries include Canada, Hungary, Japan, Mexico (1, 3, 6, or 10), Pakistan, Russia, South Korea, and Turkey.

Child and young adult passports
Most countries issue passports for children and young adults for five years, under passport issuing protocols a child or young adult passport is defined as being under 16 years for a United States Passport, under 19 years for a Japanese Passport, under 21 years for a Croatian passport, under 24 years for a German passport or under 30 years as is the case with a Spanish passport.

Infant passports
Because children change rapidly in appearance from infancy to age five, some countries issue infant passports for two years, such as the Austrian passport, or for one year in the case of the Republic of Korea passport.

Validity on arrival
Many countries require passports to have a remaining validity of six months or more on the date of arrival.

title: Čudnić

text:
The Čudnić () is a left, western tributary of the Vrbanja in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It flows to Panići village and empties into the village of Čudić in the village of Kruševo Brdo, below Arapov Brijeg (Arab's hill). It springs on the southeastern slopes of the lower Vlašić's plateau, below the Ilomska and its tributaries. The spring is on a riverhead with the Kovačevića creek and the Ćorkovac creek. The tributary flows deep and fast; it is the local population's belief that the Čudnić is flowing over a part of the water of the Ilomska confluence.

In World War II, during Operation Kugelblitz, or the '6th Enemy Offensive', of 1943 to 1944, partisans established the 12th Division's hospital near Šiprage. After consistent bombings of neighboring Šiprage, about 600 injured and sick partisans were temporarily displaced to Čudnić village and other surrounding settlements on January 4, 1944. After the departure of German and Chetnik units, this "mobile hospital" quickly returned to Šiprage (January 15, 1944).

After the war, the remains of dead partisans were moved from temporary graves in the forest to a Memorial Partisan Cemetery in Šiprage near Zagradine.

During the past War in Bosnia (1992 – 1995), all the Bosniaks villages around Čudnić were destroyed, and their civilian inhabitants were killed and displaced, as well as those from all the Bosniak and Croat villages to the Vrbanja's mouth (in Vrbas).

title: William Weaver House

text:
William Weaver House is a historic home located near Piney Creek, Alleghany County, North Carolina The original section was built about 1848, and expanded about 1890 and 1895. It began as an "L" plan with a two-story main block and a one-story ell of frame construction. A kitchen ell was built about 1890, then expanded to two stories about 1895, with the addition of a two-story front porch. Also on the property are complementing outbuildings of log and frame construction dating from about 1850 to 1940 and a family cemetery.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.

Description
Set along the east side of the South Fork of the New River, the William Weaver House owes its present appearance to three principal dates of construction— ca. 1848, ca. 1890, and ca. 1895. The house was erected as the seat of the Weaver farm on lands that were acquired in 1845. It was started as an "L" plan with a two-storey main block and a one-storey ell of frame construction clad in weatherboards and set on a full stone foundation. The ca. 1890 and ca. 1895 additions expanded the ell and raised it to a full two storeys. There are porches on the south, east and west elevations. Minor additions were made in this century. All later construction respected the integrity of the building fabric which preceded it, establishing a continuity of material and farm workmanship. The complementing outbuildings of log and frame construction also range in date of construction from ca. 1850 to ca. 1940. A family cemetery which is situated on a hilltop to the southeast of the residence, includes the graves of the builder, William Weaver and his successors.

William Weaver erected the first residence on the site around 1848. The main block which is two stories under a gable roof of sheet metal has a 3-bay front (south) elevation, and 2 bays, per story, on both east and west elevations. The elevation at the front has flush, horizontal sheathing with wider boards on the first floor than on the second. Lapped weatherboards cover the other elevations and the ell. The original one-story rear ell is one bay wide and three deep on the west elevation which forms a continuous surface with the west elevation of the main block. There is a common bond brick exterior end chimney with corbeled weatherings at the east gable end. A second brick chimney (now rebuilt to accommodate the second story) stood at the gable end of the kitchen ell. The present two-story shed-roof porch, a replacement for an earlier porch, dates from about 1895.

Bay of the center, on both stories, on the south front of the main block contains doors of three-panel construction. Each of the doors has an extensive horizontal panel across the bottom. The windows throughout have six-over-six sash. Windows of the front and the first floor’s chimney have frosted stencil decorations. A central quatrefoil design splits each pane into 4 equal parts each of which holds a stylized bunch of grapes. First level’s forefront window and door surrounds are plain unmolded boards with straight lintels. The aprons underneath the sills have a symmetrical curvilinear outline at the second level. The window surrounds the gable ends and of the ell are also plain unmolded boards whose lintels have broadly clipped corners.

Significance
The William Weaver House and Farm is a crucial example of continued one-family ownership of a farmstead in the New River Valley: the three generations of Weaver ownership span 130 years. Its rich bottom lands stretch for just over a mile along the South Fork of the New River. William Weaver (1787-1876) bought this property in 1845.  After a few years he erected the residence. Near the end of the 19th century, Andrew J. Weaver (1843-1932), William Weaver’s son,  expanded and ornamented the house. Fortunately, different stages of additions valued the original building fabric. Important to the character of the farm are its outbuildings which variously date from each generation of ownership. William Weaver and his descendants are buried in a family cemetery southeast of the house.
