Today, Erin O’Toole will be speaking at the same conference as far-right, anti-abortion and anti-LGBTQ2 activist Tanya Granic Allen at the “Canada Strong and Free Network”. 1/6
In 2013, Granic Allen "claimed gays and lesbians getting married is currently causing the demise of society” 2/6 https://pressprogress.ca/ontario-pc-candidate-claimed-same-sex-marriage-is-destroying-canadian-society/
While O’Toole seems to have no problem sharing the stage with Granic Allen, even though the Ontario PC party wouldn’t be associated with her: 3/6 https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/tanya-granic-allen-no-longer-an-ontario-pc-party-candidate-after-irresponsible-comments-doug-ford-says-1.4650360
Granic Allen is a staunch anti-abortion campaigner. She was the top choice of Campaign Life Coalition (CLC), a national group that works to nominate and elect candidates who oppose a woman’s right to choose at all levels of government 4/6 https://www.macleans.ca/politics/how-canadas-growing-anti-abortion-movement-plans-to-swing-the-next-federal-election/

O’Toole is courting the same far-right groups as Granic Allen. This type of hate should be condemned, but here is yet another example of O’Toole so desperate for support instead of standing up for the rights of women and LGBTQ2 6/6 https://ipolitics.ca/2018/03/05/granic-allen-flirting-dangerously-zealot-wing/
