Conservative Party Faces Backlash for Appointing Brantford Mayor Kevin Davis as Byelection Candidate Without Nomination Process
The federal Conservative party is facing criticism for appointing Brantford, Ontario Mayor Kevin Davis as their candidate for an upcoming byelection in Brantford-Brant South, bypassing a traditional nomination contest. This decision has drawn backlash from local party members and candidates who had prepared for a competitive selection process. Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre announced Davis's appointment at a rally on Sunday, surprising many as the party opted not to hold a nomination race. The seat has been vacant since Conservative MP Larry Brock resigned from the House of Commons on September 18, after returning to his role as a Crown prosecutor. Brock had previously endorsed Dave Carrol, a local pastor who had hoped to run in the nomination contest. Carrol expressed deep disappointment, stating that he had spent nearly two decades building the party's grassroots presence through door-knocking, membership drives, and fundraising, and had hoped the local membership would select the candidate. The Conservative party defended its decision, stating that Davis was 'overwhelmingly endorsed' by attendees at Poilievre's rally and that appointing him ensured a candidate would be ready to campaign immediately. The House of Commons is scheduled to return from its summer recess on September 21, with the byelection expected to be called soon. This incident highlights tensions within the Conservative party between centralized leadership decisions and local grassroots involvement, a key principle that has historically drawn many members to the party. The controversy also comes amid ongoing discussions about the party's internal processes and how they balance national strategy with local candidate selection. With the byelection likely to be held in the coming weeks, the appointment of Davis without a nomination contest has become a focal point for internal party debates and voter engagement in the riding.

John Rustad Reinstated in B.C. Conservative Caucus Following Expulsion by Former Leader
John Rustad, former leader of the British Columbia Conservative Party, has been invited to rejoin the party's caucus after being expelled by former leader Kerry-Lynne Findlay. The invitation came just days after Findlay resigned from her leadership role on Sunday, with Lorne Doerkson appointed as interim leader of the Opposition. Rustad confirmed that Doerkson reached out to him via text message to extend the invitation. This development occurs amid discussions within the governing NDP caucus about the possibility of an early election following Findlay's resignation, which has raised concerns about the Opposition lacking a clear candidate to lead the province. Doerkson, as interim leader, is barred by the Conservative constitution from seeking the party leadership permanently. The situation highlights the internal dynamics within the B.C. Conservative Party and the political landscape as the province prepares for potential electoral changes. Rustad's return to the caucus could influence the party's strategy and direction in the lead-up to any upcoming election. The Globe and Mail reports that Rustad was previously the leader of the Conservative Party, having taken over from Findlay, but was expelled by her in the final days of her leadership. The timing of Rustad's reinstatement, coming shortly after Findlay's resignation, suggests a strategic move by the party to stabilize its position ahead of potential electoral challenges. The NDP's consideration of an early election adds another layer of complexity to the political environment in British Columbia. With the Opposition still without a permanent leader, the party's ability to present a unified front may be tested in the coming months. This news underscores the fluid nature of political alliances and leadership changes within provincial politics, particularly in the context of an impending election cycle. The B.C. Conservative Party's internal restructuring, including Rustad's reinstatement, reflects the ongoing efforts to consolidate support and prepare for future electoral contests. The party's next steps will likely be closely watched by political observers and the public alike.

Three B.C. Conservative MLAs Expelled from Party Caucus
Three members of the British Columbia Conservative Party's legislative caucus have been expelled from their party's parliamentary group. The expelled members, identified as Rustad, Halford, and RattΓ©e, were removed from the Conservative caucus following internal party decisions. This development comes as the B.C. Conservative Party faces internal challenges and leadership questions. The party leader has vowed to remain in his position despite the recent expulsion of three caucus members. The news follows a series of internal party conflicts, including another caucus member resigning recently. The expulsion of these three MLAs (Members of the Legislative Assembly) represents a significant shift in the party's internal dynamics. The B.C. Conservative Party is currently navigating a period of political uncertainty as Premier John Eby faces speculation about a potential snap election. The party's leadership has been under scrutiny following these internal developments. The expulsion of these three members appears to be part of a broader pattern of internal party tensions that have been escalating in recent months. This news comes as the party prepares for potential electoral challenges in the coming months. The Conservative Party's current position in the legislature has been weakened by these internal divisions, which could impact their ability to effectively oppose the governing party. The party's future strategy and leadership structure remain unclear following these developments. The expulsion of these three MLAs has been widely reported in the Canadian media, with several news outlets covering the story in detail. The Conservative Party has not provided extensive details about the specific reasons for the expulsions, but it is understood that the decisions were made following internal party discussions and disciplinary actions. This development is significant for B.C. politics as it represents a major internal upheaval within the opposition party. The party's ability to maintain cohesion and present a united front in the legislature will be tested in the coming weeks and months. The Premier of British Columbia, John Eby, has not made any public statements regarding the Conservative Party's internal affairs, focusing instead on his government's agenda and potential election timing. The political landscape in British Columbia is currently in a state of flux, with multiple parties and factions navigating complex internal and external challenges. The expulsion of these three MLAs is likely to have ripple effects throughout the provincial political scene, potentially influencing upcoming electoral strategies and party alliances.

B.C. Conservative Leader Kerry-Lynne Findlay Faces Internal Party Turmoil
The article discusses the ongoing internal turmoil within the British Columbia Conservative Party under the leadership of Kerry-Lynne Findlay. Since winning the party leadership in May 2026, Findlay has faced significant challenges, including the resignation of nine MLAs and numerous staff departures. Most recently, she removed three prominent figures from the party caucus: former leader John Rustad, interim leader Trevor Halford, and Skeena MLA Claire RattΓ©e. RattΓ©e has publicly stated she remains a Conservative MLA and rejects Findlay's authority to remove her, emphasizing she was elected as a Conservative MLA. Findlay's announcement cited 'internal power struggles' and 'vanity projects' as reasons for the dismissals, but her statements have been criticized as vague and lacking factual support. The article also details Findlay's controversial hiring and firing decisions, including the executive director Elaine Allan, who reportedly hired a private investigator to follow party members and others, and Apollo Chung, who was fired after a leaked recording about party funds. The Conservative Party is described as being on a 'shifting sandbar,' with internal divisions between those who believe the party is being deliberately dismantled by 'faux' Conservatives and those who argue Findlay lacks the leadership to unite the party. The author notes that Findlay has not provided transparency about the internal conflicts, which is harming her credibility. The article concludes that Findlay's leadership style is shrinking the Conservative tent to an unelectable size, potentially benefiting Premier David Eby's NDP, who is currently leading in polls by 10 points. The author argues that a broad-based conservative movement is necessary to challenge the NDP's dominance, but Findlay's actions are undermining this effort. The piece emphasizes the need for transparency and effective leadership to rebuild the party's credibility and electoral prospects.

Former B.C. Conservative Party Leaders and MLAs Report Unauthorized Private Investigation by Party Official
The former president of the British Columbia Conservative Party, Aisha Estey, has revealed that she and approximately a dozen others, including four Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs), were targeted by a private investigator allegedly hired by the party's former executive director, Elaine Allan. According to Estey, Allan, who was acting without authorization, used party funds to hire the investigator to look into the activities of these individuals. The investigation reportedly occurred during Estey's tenure as party president, which ended in August 2026. The list of those targeted includes MLAs Claire RattΓ©e, Rosalyn Bird, Brennan Day, and ΓΚΌaκlΓya Warbus, as well as former party executive director Angelo Isidorou, former managing director Philip Dippenaar, NDP staffer Matt Hannah, Mandeep Dhaliwal, and Jonathan Ross. Rosalyn Bird, who recently left the Conservative caucus to sit as an Independent, stated that she was informed by the party that Allan had hired the investigator and that the investigator had submitted a bill to the party for payment after realizing Allan was no longer employed by the party. Bird expressed deep disappointment, stating she was 'disappointed on a level that I can't even explain.' The B.C. Conservative Party president, Mauro Francis, has been contacting those on the list to inform them of the investigation. Party leader Kerry-Lynne Findlay, who was not aware of the investigation, stated that she had 'no knowledge of it' and that the matter was 'allegations at the moment.' The party has launched an internal review into the matter. The private investigator was reportedly hired to investigate the source of a social media account on X called The Findlay Files, which has been publishing damaging allegations against Findlay and other senior Conservative staff. Angelo Isidorou, the former executive director, stated that the investigation was initiated by Allan without authorization from the party's board of directors. He expressed deep disappointment, stating that he had 'spent years building this party' and was 'deeply disappointed by these inappropriate actions.' The hiring of the private investigator was discussed at a tense caucus meeting, where two MLAs called for Findlay to resign. RattΓ©e published an open letter stating that the caucus is 'deeply divided' under Findlay, who has skipped meetings and failed to mend fences with MLAs after nine left the party. Findlay, however, stated, 'I'm not going anywhere,' and emphasized the party's readiness for a potential snap election by Premier David Eby. The party has not been able to independently verify the allegations or confirm Allan's sole knowledge of the investigation. The matter remains under investigation by the party.
