Tory Defector Calls Party 'Autocrats' | Winnipeg News
Description
Wally Daudrich, a loyal conservative and former PC leadership contender, has walked away from the Tories after being blocked from running in Turtle Mountain — a move he says was politically motivated and came just days before the nomination vote, despite his overwhelming grassroots support. Accused of violating party rules and making disparaging remarks, Daudrich claims he even refunded memberships to supporters who urged him to run as an independent. He now rails against what he calls “autocrats” in the legislature and demands real conservative leadership, arguing the party has drifted too far left. Analysts note his rural, socially conservative appeal may clash with the urban-focused direction under leader Obby Khan — a contrast that could reshape Manitoba’s political landscape.
