Rustad says in the post late Monday that Sakoma-Fadugba is a “wonderful person” who is “proudly Christian” and she shouldn’t have been asked to quit, sharing a photo of the pair smiling together. Former RCMP officer Sturko’s defection to the Conservatives ahead of the B.C. election was a pivotal moment for the party and Rustad’s efforts to create what he called a “big tent” party.
“Not seeing that post before it went up was disappointing, but it hasn’t taken away from my desire to continue working with John to improve our province,” she said.
