OTTAWA (LifeSiteNews) – The Conservative Party of Canada (CPC) at the direction of leader Erin O’Toole left out any Member of Parliament (MP) who publicly questioned COVID shots from being part of its “Shadow Cabinet.”
On November 9, the CPC announced its “Shadow Cabinet,” which serves to counter Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberal cabinet on important files.
However, a glance at the list, which includes 54 CPC MPs, leaves out notable ones such as Dr. Leslyn Lewis, Marilyn Gladu, Rosemarie Falk, and Mark Strahl. These three MPs have publicly questioned COVID jabs or mandates in one way or another over the past few months.
Lewis finished third in the 2020 CPC leadership race that saw O’Toole elected. Gladu also ran in the race but dropped out midway.
Speaking in French to reporters two weeks ago, O’Toole said he selected MPs who were “experienced” and “prepared to fight inflation, prepared to fight the Liberal-NDP coalition, and also to address vaccine hesitancy.”
“It’s very important for leaders in our shadow cabinet to play that role,” added O’Toole, saying that is the reason he made those “choices.”
Both Gladu and Falk are longtime MPs who previously were part of the CPCs “Shadow Cabinet.”
Gladu is behind a group of CPC MPs who banded together to create a “Civil Liberties Caucus”
