O’Toole squelches outbreak of conservatism – boots senator who challenged his leadership out of CPC caucus.

OTTAWA — Erin O’Toole kicked Sen. Denise Batters out of the Conservative caucus Tuesday — one day after she challenged his leadership.

“As the leader of the Conservative Party of Canada, I will not tolerate an individual discrediting and showing a clear lack of respect towards the efforts of the entire Conservative caucus, who are holding the corrupt and disastrous Trudeau government to account,” O’Toole said in a brief statement released late Tuesday.
