The Green Party’s two MPs were both prepared to walk away from their party and sit as Independents if the federal council cancelled the party’s leadership race, according to an email forwarded to CBC.
One of MP Mike Morrice’s staff members sent three federal councillors a message on Friday evening urging them not to suspend the leadership race. In addition to warning that the MPs might quit the party, the email also warned against the federal council closing the party’s Ottawa headquarters, a decision that CBC has reported the party may have to make because donations have plummeted.
