A former Conservative member of parliament who resigned as the Conservative candidate less than a day before the campaign started is set to endorse the People’s Party of Canada (PPC), True North has learned.
David Yurdiga, a three-term Conservative MP in Fort McMurray—Cold Lake, is throwing his support behind his riding’s PPC candidate, Shawn McDonald.
Yurdiga is scheduled to meet with McDonald and PPC leader Maxime Bernier in Cold Lake, Alta. Monday afternoon.
McDonald told True North this is a huge endorsement for his campaign and the PPC.
“We’re the true conservatives. We’re bringing people home,” McDonald said, noting Yurdiga is likely to bring over traditionally Conservative voters. “People listen to David. He’s a good man. He really supported the area for many years. He did very good in that, and people really value his work.”
