The press secretary for Nova Scotia Premier Tim Houston says an investigation by the Progressive Conservative Party has uncovered evidence that someone accessed a social media account belonging to a political staffer and then used the account to post antisemitic comments.
The Nova Scotia Premier's office says a member of the PC Party has been "swiftly removed" after allegedly accessing a staffer's social media account and posting an offensive post.
The only independent member of the Nova Scotia House of Assembly, Elizabeth Smith-McCrossin wants a judge to kill a resolution put forward by a PC cabinet minister last spring that could have led to her expulsion from the legislature.
