The man in charge of Ontario's largest union does not think Sam Oosterhoff is fit to serve in the legislature.

OPSEU President Warren (Smokey) Thomas would like to see the Niagara West MPP kicked out of caucus, after he pledged to make abortion unthinkable while attending a rally in Toronto.

Oosterhoff's pro-life comment also sparked a protest outside one of his community coffee events this past weekend.

In a statement on May 9th, the Ford Government said they welcome members from a wide variety of backgrounds and beliefs, but they will not re-open the abortion debate.
