Goldie Ghamari was removed from the PC caucus after she met with far-right leader Tommy Robinson. On Tuesday, she broke her silence on the decision.
The MPP removed from Premier Doug Ford’s Progressive Conservative caucus after meeting with a far-right leader from the United Kingdom says she is “disappointed” by the move and has promised to continue sitting as an independent.
Premier Ford’s office said Ghamari was removed from caucus after “repeated instances of serious lapses in judgment and a failure to collaborate constructively with caucus leadership and as a team member.” “To everyone who has supported my efforts to raise awareness about IRGC terrorists in Canada, thank you,” her statement added. “Please rest assured that I will continue to speak out on this issue.”
