Controversial MP Derek Sloan has been kicked out of the Conservative caucus in a move party leader Erin O'Toole said was due to a "pattern of destructive behaviour" that had become a distraction.
But Sloan is not going quietly.
On Facebook, he urged so-called "blue" Tories to keep their party memberships and make their voices heard at an upcoming policy convention.
Party leader Erin O'Toole initiated the caucus removal process late Monday after news of the donation surfaced.
Sloan did not dispute he received the money from Paul Fromm, but has said he was unaware of it.
Sloan has been in hot water several times before.
He once questioned chief public health officer Dr. Theresa Tam's loyalty to Canada.
He also suggested being LGBTQ is a choice.
