The development was first reported by CTV News. The broadcaster said it unearthed a 2022 podcast recording where McKenzie expressed support for public hangings and jokingly suggested Justin Trudeau should receive the death penalty.

He was no longer listed as a candidate on the party's website as of Tuesday morning.

And nothing of value was lost.

If you get excited over the idea of public executions let alone the death penalty, you should be nowhere near not just a seat in government, but also nowhere near civilised society in general. Seeing people's deaths as a source of entertainment is downright inhuman.
