VICTORIA — A group of riding executives and former candidates with the Conservative Party of B.C. have become the latest voices to call for an end to John Rustad's leadership, writing to the party's legislators to urge them to oust him.

Corey Brooks, president of the riding association for Burnaby-North, says in an interview the party will "continue bleeding" support and won't be competitive next election if Rustad remains Opposition leader.

He says Rustad has a "shockingly poor personal favourability," memberships and donations have been declining, and there's "plunging morale" among supporters.

Brooks is among 15 signatories of a letter dated Nov. 7 that asks Conservative MLAs to act with "courage and conviction" to "initiate a leadership renewal" to put Conservatives back on track.
