We were sent these screenshots from a Facebook profile of Nick Smith where he appears to be discussing stealing election signs. He also states that homeless people are being paid $20/sign to steal, being paid by Municipal Property Works out of Orangeville. We've contacted them for comment.

If you live in Ontario near any of the closed supervised consumption sites we need you to get trained in overdose response. Yesterday a colleague found someone overdosed in a door way, tried to revive them but they were already dead.

What's a CPC candidate doing in a group chat with a self-identified white nationalist and another person who promotes neo-Nazi documentaries on their livestream?

Elgin-StThomas-London residents read and share this!

We are hearing that local residents are organizing against Lawton and will be at local candidate events.

Organize for Elgin!

4 Conservative candidates have dropped this week. PPs "biographer" Andrew Lawson is still in the running even though he is a well known bigot. Make some noise and get Lawson off the ballot! We are hearing he may see some protesters soon 👀

Another Poilievre fringe candidate.
Andrew Lawton is a CPC candidate in London with a rich history of extreme views. At one point he blamed mental illness for his racist and hateful tweets.(CBC)
Canada, we can do better.

Here are PC candidate Andrew Lawton’s worst moments (so far)
Among other things, Doug Ford’s handpicked candidate made anti-abortion comments, railed against “feminazis”, and denounced the hoisting of the Pride Flag at London City Hall

New post: We ask why Andew Lawton is still the candidate for the Conservatives in Elgin St. Thomas London riding when Lawson has years of hateful opinions. When other conservative candidates are being dropped, why not Lawson too?
