The Ontario Progressive Conservative Party caucus kicked out Cambridge MPP Belinda Karahalios on Tuesday after she voted against Bill 195. In a statement to CBC News, the premier's office confirmed Karahalios was no longer sitting with the PC party caucus. "At its core, Bill 195 takes away the legislature's ability to vote on the use of extraordinary emergency powers on Ontarians for the next year," Karahalios said in the release. "With Bill 195, Ford hands himself unprecedented and undemocratic powers to make rules in secret behind closed doors," Bisson said. Karahalios is a first-time MPP, and won her seat with 37 per cent of the vote.
