Lise des Greniers, President of the Electoral Society for the Brossard-Saint-Lambert Riding of Conservative Party of Canada (PCC), resigned his post and turned his back on his party, regretting the election of Pierre Poilevre at the head of the CCP. She accuses the new leader of undermining the country’s democratic institutions, fueling discontent and endangering social peace.

“The Conservative Party of Canada has become the party of right-wing anarchists. [Pierre Poilievre] carries with it dissident groups and staunch extremists,” she said in a letter from him The duty received a copy and was particularly critical of Pierre Poilievre’s support for the ” Convoy of Freedom from Ottawa.

She begins her letter with an unequivocal statement: “The Conservative Party of Canada, of which I am a member […] is no longer”.

Lise des Greniers has also been a past candidate for the Montreal South Shore PCC, as well as a member of the party’s executive board. As of today, she is resigning from her position as president of the riding club and is requesting that her party membership card be revoked.

Without necessarily pointing the finger at specific measures proposed by the new leader, Ms des Greniers insists that Pierre Poilievre supports a “narrative of anti-parliamentarianism and anti-intellectualism”. “Our culture-specific Canadian and provincial values, our moral principles, our standards of behavior are at risk,” she says.

Remember that a few days after Pierre Poilievre’s landslide victory at the head of the CPC with 68% of the vote last Saturday, Alain Rayes, the member for Richmond-Arthabaska and Quebec, was also party leader resigned. Mr Rayes also condemned Pierre Poilievre’s support for the ” Convoy of Freedom and feared it would “threaten our democratic institutions”.
