QUÉBEC — The leader of the Quebec Liberal Party has booted Marwah Rizqy from caucus, saying she has broken his trust.
Pablo Rodriguez issued a statement announcing his decision ahead of a scheduled news conference later today.
The Quebec Liberals have been in crisis since Rizqy — the party’s former leader in the legislature — fired her chief of staff last month without consulting Rodriguez.
Rizqy has refused to publicly state why she fired Geneviève Hinse, saying the dismissal was a human resources matter.
Rodriguez says Rizqy acted alone and not in the interests of the Liberal team.
He adds he now hopes to focus on the priorities of Quebecers.
