This is not about free speech its about being at odds with the fundamental principals
of the NDP. This is not the Provincial Office's problem it is the local constituency who
did not vet the Candidate. There are a series of questions asked by all parties when
a person throws their hat in the ring. How much does the candidate know about the
issues and the parties position on those issues. Is the person suited to be a member
of the house in government or the opposition.
I went to the opening of the campaign office and talked to candidates and asked questions
and frankly, I had some reservations myself.
I go to campaign headquarters and public forums its good to know what people do or do not
know.
The fact is Dix acted immediately after he was filled in on what happened.
I will vote NDP in this election I have all ready said that, but I have an adopted daughter and
three grand kids who are Native, I was offended by her comments. I have a number of family
that have joined our clan through marriage who are French I was offended by the comments.
Lets be clear there is a difference between being critical of a specific situation, but to use the
forum to just make generalities different matter.
You've got me a little confused, you said several times you will be voting N.D.P. but I'm at a loss as to how you can make that decision when you don't know who the candidate will be. Am I being presumptous in thinking this woman was running in your electorate? I vote for the person whose philosophy is closest to mine, if I can determine who that is. The actual parties are all pretty much the same. Get elected, stay elected, get the fat pension along with all other perks possible!
