Ex-Tory candidate slams party for media restrictions
A former Conservative candidate said Sunday that the party muzzled him and kept him from freely engaging in public discourse.
Gary Caldwell, who will now run for the Green Party in the Quebec riding of Compton-Stanstead, claimed he had to ignore Tory rules to speak openly with reporters.
“If one wanted to communicate with the local media, one had to take it upon oneself to override instructions that we had,” Caldwell told CTV’s Question Period on Sunday.
