Article here. So a leadership candidate and rookie MP for the Conservatives has made racist comments towards Dr. Tam and since Scheer or the party itself refuses to comment or do anything about it I guess the remarks have the Conservative party seal of approval. And to have this make even less sense Dr. Tam was not even born in or has connections to China, she was born in British Hong Kong, grew up in the UK, and educated in the UK and Canada.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau slammed a Conservative MP’s statements questioning the loyalty of Canada’s top doctor to her country as Tory Leader Andrew Scheer refused to comment on the remarks.
Ontario MP Derek Sloan, who is running to replace Mr. Scheer as leader of the Conservative Party, called for Dr. Theresa Tam to be fired in fundraising emails and social media posts this week.
"Dr. Tam must go! Canada must remain sovereign over decisions,” he wrote on Twitter.
“Does she work for Canada or for China,” Mr. Sloan asked in a Facebook video posted late Tuesday.
