Permier David Eby said that the decision was made after an internal investigation following a human resources complaint.
Vancouver Island MLA Adam Walker has been removed from the NDP government caucus following an internal investigation stemming from a human resources complaint.
“This thorough investigation found misconduct on the part of MLA Walker,” Eby said. “As with any other human resources issue, we are not able to disclose additional details.”Walker told the Times Colonist on Sunday afternoon that the removal came as a surprise. “It’s news to me,” he said. “I only just heard this as well.”
A B.C. NDP caucus spokesperson said that Walker was informed about the decision prior to the news being released to the public, but could not say when. Walker had previously served as a town councillor for Qualicum Beach from 2018 to 2020. He was elected as a B.C. NDP MLA in the 2020 election with a 6.5 per cent vote margin, flipping the riding to the New Democrats for the first time since 1996.
