Penticton-Summerland MLA Amelia Boultbee has announced she is leaving the B.C. Conservative Party to sit as an independent, becoming the fifth MLA to exit the party this year.
Boultbee said her Oct. 20 departure from the B.C. Conservatives was not caused by political disagreement but by concerns over John Rustad’s leadership of the party, calling for him to resign.
