Lynn Beyak become the first-ever senator to be expelled from the Senate, citing Beyak’s “individual racism” as grounds for giving her the boot.“The Senate is now seized with confronting a blatant example of institutional racism within our own House.
The individual racism demonstrated by Senator Beyak in both her words and her actions has been elevated to an institutional level by the Senate operating in a way that enabled her escalating misconduct,” McCallum’s press release read.“By allowing her to remain in a position with the inherent title of ‘Honourable’ while such misdeeds have been appropriated is irresponsible and sets a poor example that is contrary to how Parliamentarians expect themselves and each other to act.” Senate votes to.
