If the United Conservative Party candidate who compared transgender students to feces in food is elected, she will not sit as a member of the party, Leader Danielle Smith says.
Smith issued the statement Thursday morning, calling Lacombe-Ponoka candidate Jennifer Johnson's 2022 comments offensive and vile.
Smith continued, "I have informed Ms. Johnson that should she win a seat as the UCP candidate for Lacombe-Panoka, she will not sit as a member of the United Conservative caucus in the Legislature." . When an audience member asked how the candidates would ensure the protection of LGBTQ2S+ children and adults, Smith said the topic had been polarized.
