Richard Decarie, a social conservative whose views have been condemned by some senior Conservatives, has been barred from running in the party's leadership race.

Decarie, who believes being LGBTQ is a choice and the government should defund abortion, had submitted the required application, fee and nomination signatures to run in the contest by Thursday's deadline.Party spokesman Cory Hann says he can't say specifically why Decarie wasn't allowed to run.

Brad Trost, a former leadership candidate himself who had been helping Decarie, says the campaign was blindsided by the news. It came in the form of a list released today by the party naming the eight official candidates now in the race.

He was never a serious contender.

The CPC_HQ is ashamed of its own social Conservative base. They were so afraid of RichardDECARIE that they had to ban him! 2020Decarie CPC cpcldr ProLife WEXITNOW pipelines polqc

NO WTF

Good, he is a trouble maker, not a leader!

I can't wait to see how this is JustinTrudeau's fault.

Can't have someone spouting what they REALLY believe. It didn't work well for Max so twice shy.

Staged like a false flag attack to re-brand the CPC as progressives in contrast. He was never a real candidate. More sycophantic centrists for the plutocrats to hedge their bets on.

He looks like a goof just like the others! ConservativeTrash

The Conservative Party no longer believes in free speech and ideas. What's the point of voting in the leadership race if the committee is going to make the decision for you? cpcldr

Fair enough, there's already a place for bigoted nationalist regressives like him and it's called the PPC.

We already have a closet racist as a PM....

He must of offended some left wing snowflakes

So now there is No Conservative party in Canada IPO has 338 candidates and an IMAN as the leader WTF is Canada doing ffs

But I thought the Right spent their days screaming about free speech and being censored by the Left

😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠

Yup I'm not one but you can't pick and choose. Just make sure someone better wins. Not fkn McKay

What the hell is a social conservative? LOL Conservatives that leave their house once in a while?

How commie of them

Sounds like censorship
