Nunavut senator Dennis Patterson quits Conservative caucus: ‘This country is divided’

Nunavut Conservative Sen. Dennis Patterson says he has left the Conservative caucus after not seeing some of his colleagues condemn the ongoing protests in Ottawa against COVID-19 health mandates.

He also said that when Erin O’Toole was ousted as Conservative Party leader last week, he didn’t feel confident that a future leader might support a “more centralized, progressive, solutions-oriented approach.”

“This is the Conservative Party, which has been known as the party of law and order, and I’m very upset with the lawlessness and the desecration of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and the hateful, repugnant symbols (like the Nazi swastikas) being used and I’m disappointed that this has not been called out,” said Patterson.

Gee, what's the over/under on MP Patterson crossing the floor to strap on his kneepads for Princess Justine Castro?

Well, bye. :P

Just another poseur. The Conservatives are stronger without him.

Yawn. Another worthless career politican. Politics has always attracted the worst of the worst and always will.

He claims to have been a Conservative, but I don't think he knows what that word means.

There has been an ongoing search for the perpetrator (a woman) who desecrated the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. I wonder if that episode goes down the memory hole once a discovery is made that is similar to when it was found out who drew swastikas on Washington’s Union Station (as in someone who does not fit the media narrative)?

If there were any swastikas, those were the false flag antifa types.

Why are aren't we running conservatives under progressive banners and having them call for "decentralized solutions that are respectful of our traditions and of the business and family structures our citizens have built?"

They have no problem running their candidates under our labels - we need to return the favor.

I have wondered the same thing. Why not run as a demoncrap, and upon taking office, be all mavericky in the extreme and just vote like you’re Jim Jordan.

“Why are aren’t we running conservatives under progressive banners...”

Same reason the Republicans never fought for clean elections and dumped it on Trump to fight for them, and then back-stabbed him.

Because we always knew that the Hard-Left could NEVER get power.

The Left had the advantage of knowing that the ONLY way to achieve power was to infiltrate conservative institutions, and destroy them from the inside...and so they did.

I was not aware that Mitt Romney’s relative was a Canadian Senator.

The Republican brand is so badly damaged that such tactics are probably the only way forward for MAGA conservatives. I’d guess the chances of the MAGA message appealing to large parts of the Democrat base when presented under a different label are higher than the chances of MAGA conservatives primarying McConnell and Graham.

Are you speaking of the US tomb or Canada’s. Desecrating any such tomb,regardless of where it is,is despicable.
