OTTAWA -- A list of candidates forced to step down, or resigned since the start of the campaign on Sept. 11, which doesn't include, for instance, the Liberal decision to oust candidate Hassan Guillet (Saint Leonard--Saint-Michel) in late August over alleged anti-Semitic social-media posts.
Liberal
None since the start of the election campaign.
Conservative
Sept. 12: Cameron Ogilvie (Winnipeg North) over incendiary comments in social-media posts.
NDP
Sept. 11: Dock Currie (Kamloops-Thompson-Cariboo) over online comments. Olivier Mathieu (LaSalle--Emard--Verdun) over domestic abuse allegations.
Green
Sept. 12: Erik Schomann (Simcoe North) over a social-media post that talked about sending pig meat to Muslims.
People's Party
Sept. 12: Brian Misera (Coquitlam-Port Coquitlam).

The party says it was because he was acting as his own financial agent, in violation of election rules.
