Erin O'Toole says it's been the honour of a lifetime to lead the party of Sir John A. MacDonald and Confederation.
Speaking this evening he says he believes the Conservative party needs to be both an intellectual force and a governing force.
Erin O'Toole was ousted today by his caucus in a strong vote against his leadership.
But he intends to remain as a sitting MP, saying, ``there is not a bad seat in the House of Commons, from the back corner where he first sat, to the front rows.''
Erin O'Toole has headed the party since August of 2020 after Andrew Scheer was pushed out as leader.
