Orchard Wins Fight Against Tories

Posted on Monday, April 12 at 11:53 by N Say
"It lifts a great weight off our shoulders, this threat of huge costs," said Orchard, the former Progressive Conservative leadership hopeful. "It's a significant victory for us. I can tell you our people all across the country are happy."

The Conservative Party launched the suit to stem Orchard's public outbursts against the party. He insisted on calling the merger of the PC party and Canadian Alliance illegal and the leaders of the new Conservative Party claim to have been defamed by "hearsay, misrepresentations, speculation, irrelevant political rhetoric and alleged personal bias," according to the wording of the Ontario Superior Court judgment by Justice Juriansz.
