B.C. Conservative Leader Findlay to face media after another MLA exits party

VANCOUVER - B.C. Conservative Party Leader Kerry-Lynne Findlay addressed the possibility of additional legislators leaving her caucus on Tuesday morning. Less than three hours later, Rosalyn Bird, a former caucus whip, became the third Conservative MLA to depart since May when Findlay took over as leader. Bird cited issues of divisive leadership, racism, and homophobia as reasons for her exit.

This marks another wave of departures from the Conservative party since Findlay's leadership win. Findlay remains optimistic, stating that some may have left due to wanting the leadership role or disliking the party's choice of membership.
