Ehhhhhh, I disagree with him but if my party were in the same situation, I’d probably argue for the same course of action.
While the candidates are regrettable (and the fact the Conservatives attract those types says a lot) for anything I really believe in, I’d put achieving policy over outrage.
If the NDP had dropped candidates in safer ridings and the Conservatives had won, well, I think that would have been super damaging to the education system, to the environment, to the childcare we’re implementing and MUCH more. I have a hard time imagining any statements that would outrage me enough to inflict that Conservative damage on the province. And while I disagree with Conservatives, they feel the same way about the NDP and that’s totally fair.
