After Steven Del Duca lost a third candidate this week questions are being raised about the vetting process.
Chatham-Kent-Leamington candidate Alec Mazurek has ”officially been terminated” over a gay slur allegedly made on social media.
”That is not what we stand for,” said the Liberal leader.
The firing comes the day after the party dumped their hopeful in Parry Sound-Muskoka, Barry Stanley, who published a book detailing scientifically baseless views on homosexuality.
On Tuesday, the Liberal parted ways with Aidan Kallioinen as their candidate in Sault Ste. Marie.
He says party officials told him a media report had surfaced alleging he made some inappropriate comments in an online gaming forum.
