'Incessant pressure to shut up' led to resignation as finance critic, MP says.

Ed Fast says he resigned as the Conservatives' finance critic after MPs supporting Pierre Poilievre tried to "muzzle" him from speaking out about monetary policy — particularly on issues such a cryptocurrency and the Bank of Canada.

That's how authoritarians roll. Conservatives seem to be seeking a one party one man rule system. Makes life easier when you don't have to make decisions for yourself.

That’s not true . Turns out he’s really a liberal pretending to be a conservative.

What do you know. A Conservative with some ethics. Didn't see that coming.

Fast won’t comment on statements made in caucus due to privacy issues. Weird how they always scream and cry when Liberal MPs follow the same convention. cdnpoli

Only question remaining is what will be the name of Poilievre,s breakaway party: 1. The Peoples Conservative Party 2. The Canadian Republicans 3. The Conservative Proud Boys

Good another Conservstive down makesmy day!!

Should the party representing the right, be two parties once again. Seems to me they may operate in a more cohesive manner…two parties supporting each other on some issues rather than one party squabbling over identity and turning off voters.

I couldn’t help but laugh when I read the guy who resigned is “co-chairing Jean Charest‘s leadership campaign”. Like no wonder he tried making a spectacle and talking to CBC about “having to” resign bc of Charest’s competition, Poilievre. Anyone else easily putting it together?

Editing is terrible here.

Interesting to see the little ratfink using his dog whistle to give a shout-out to white supremacists. Did he always use the old Aryan slang or just wanted to copy Pat King? Doesn't sound like 6th century language. His base can barely use normal English.

Sorry Ed but it's the Convoy Party now and sanity is no longer wanted.

Pollievre is a socon loser. He will never be PM, and will usher in another 2 seat caucus in the next election, if he wins the leadership. Brown lost my vote when he said socons would have a place if he won. Si Charest it is.

“Fast's allegation is the latest indication of a leadership race that is sowing division in the Conservative party.” Should say “even more division.” Little twerp Poilievre is being educated by YouTube videos ffs. Former shadow finance minister Poilievre btw.

He is right and this is more reason why Poilievre should not be leader of party.

CandiceBergenMP Do your job as an interim leader, not a PP's cabinet machine.

so much for democracy and free speech

Ed Fast out as Tory finance critic after criticizing leadership candidate PoilievreEd Fast is no longer the Conservative finance critic, interim party leader Candice Bergen says. Bergen said in a statement late Wednesday that Fast informed her he will be 'stepping away from his duties.' Brown shirts in aisle 666. Never thought I'd applaud something Ed Fast did, but I do. Bergen should be out. At least Ed Fast has the class to call it right.
