in Featured World News Derek Sloan calls himself ‘sacrificial lamb’ in CPC’s purge of social conservatism
Sloan described a ‘meltdown’ on the part of CPC leader Erin O’Toole and his team after the storming of the U.S. Capitol Building on Jan. 6.
(LifeSiteNews) —– Former Conservative Party of Canada (CPC) M.P. and leadership candidate Derek Sloan said the “real reason” he was booted from caucus is because the CPC had an “emotional/psychological meltdown” in the aftermath of the storming of the U.S. Capitol, which started a party purge of the social conservative voice.
“REAL reason for ejection? O’Toole & team had emotional/psychological meltdown after D.C events & their knee-jerk reaction is to purge right-wing/conservative elements,” tweeted Sloan Thursday.
“Hence a ‘sacrificial lamb’ to appease left & liberal media. I was most obvious candidate but I won’t be the last.”
The leader of the CPC, Erin O’Toole, claimed that the booting of pro-life Sloan from the party had nothing to do with Sloan’s staunch social conservative bent. O’Toole said he removed Sloan due to “destructive behaviour involving multiple incidents.”
However, when declaring his intentions to remove Sloan from the party on Monday, O’Toole cited as justification the acceptance of a donation from a white supremacist using an alias. He made no mention of “a pattern of destructive behaviour.”
Sloan said on Twitter Thursday that O’Toole’s letter was “false,” adding that during the call to decide his fate with his fellow M.P.s, many spoke out against O’Toole’s initial reasoning for booting Sloan.
“False,” tweeted Sloan. “Caucus lambasted you during our call over the ridiculous optics of expelling me over the $131 so you promised you would use another reason to save face.”
