Courtenay-Comox MLA Brennan Day is quitting the B.C. Conservative caucus, becoming the fifth to go in less than two weeks as the party continues to melt down under new Leader Kerry-Lynne Findlay.
Day says he has lost confidence in Findlay’s “judgment, conduct, and ethical standards,” and criticized the actions of people she has “chosen to surround herself” with.
“We can’t condone this behaviour,” he told Black Press Media. “We’re not Tea Party North. That’s not what I was elected to do.”
Day is the second to quit on Wednesday, following Richmond-Bridgeport MLA Teresa Wat.
More to come.
