Maybe it's because the Green's are the most racist? And most accepting to these NDP views?

Race a factor in NDP's poor outlook in N.B. ahead of election: ex-party executive


Eh... I kind'a agree with the article.


Sort of.


The NDP haven't been a factor in NB since our own provincial party crashed and burned. The Greens have pretty much taken up the old NDP spot.


And if the leadership won't even bother to come to NB, why should anyone run under its banner?

As for racsim... that's what I'm iffy on.


IMO if the 'concern' is more northern focused, that says more about the French than anything else. Could it be racism? Maybe? Could it be intolerance spilling over from Quebec linked to the whole religious symbols? F if I know.


Personally I think it's blown out of proportion really. It's maybe not racism at all, but lack of knowing who the leader is. Meanwhile, Green has three seats provincially and seems to be holding their own decently - my riding being one of those three seats - and I can see the appeal.

Yep blown out of proportion

Elizabeth May says there's 'no room' for racism in Green Party after NDP defector's comments
New Brunswick Green Party Leader David Coon said he hasn't had a chance to speak to Richardson since he made the comments, but he contends they've been "overblown" and "exploited" by people trying to "blunt the impact" of 14 NDP candidates joining the Greens all at once.
"What I heard him say basically was he ran into some people who had ignorant attitudes and held prejudices against people of colour or people of different religions," he said.
"It's not a news flash racism and prejudice exists in Canada, and it's abhorrent and we need to work to stand up to it and stamp it out."
Coon said he travels the province regularly and, in his experience, "most" New Brunswickers are "very accepting."

However this is kinda concerning is Singh driving division or pointing out Green hypocrisy?

Singh said all national party leaders should be celebrating Canadian diversity and that May needs to explain why she has let the former New Democrats into her party.
"She's taking in candidates that have kind of openly expressed their concern around someone looking differently and that being a challenge," Singh said in Toronto on Wednesday evening. "If she is accepting people that are suggesting things that are not accepting of people's diversity, then the Green Party has a lot to answer for."
"I think our political leaders should embrace the diversity of our country and should be willing to say you can look like whatever you are as long as you share the values and beliefs that are going to make peoples' lives better."
