Former Ontario PC leadership candidate Tanya Granic Allen will be seeking the party’s nomination for Mississauga Centre, CP24 has learned.
A campaign source told CP24 on Thursday evening that Granic Allen will be officially announcing her bid on Friday morning.
Granic Allen is the president of Parents as First Educators – a grassroot movement that is against the current sex-education curriculum in the province.
Earlier this month the Progressive Conservative Party announced that the riding of Mississauga Centre would be one of three ridings hosting new nomination races. Party president Jag Badwal said the party agreed to reopen nominations for Brampton North and Newmarket-Aurora as well. (more...)
Update: Tanya has some interesting fellow-travelers on Twitter:
Announcement: Toronto Catholic Witness after prayerful examination of Tanya Granic Allen's Twitter Feed can no longer support her political campaign. When this blog endorsed her, we were not aware of her following certain neo-fascist Croatian Twitter accounts. 1/2— Toronto Catholic Witness (@TorontoCatholic) March 23, 2018
We must denounce neo-fascism & Nazism given the attack on @ChabadFlamingo My father & grandmother fed Jews through barbed wire in Poland during the War. Catholic politicians @TGranicAllen should be the first to oppose ideologies that are against the Gospels 2 /2 pic.twitter.com/pO1lWMOokQ— Toronto Catholic Witness (@TorontoCatholic) March 23, 2018
