The BC Conservative Party has fired another candidate.
A statement issued before 6:00 a.m. Sunday from leader John Cummins says Vancouver-West End candidate Ron Herbert has been shown the door -- the statement does not say why.
"In light of last week's revelation about two of our candidates, I ordered a full re-vetting of all BC Conservative candidates. These are never easy situations for a campaign, but I believe that leaders must act proactively. As a result of this process the senior volunteer responsible for vetting has stepped down from that position, and I fired Ron Herbert as our candidate in Vancouver-West End. He will not appear on the ballot as a BC Conservative." - John Cummins
The party has now lost or fired four candidates since the start of the election campaign.
