more signs of internal revolt.
it's no secret that yolande james was pushed by the party because of her gender & ethnicity. i guess the riding members were less enthused by the prospect.
the liberals are making all of the same stupid mistakes that the democrats made, and are going to have to deal with all of the same consequences. you can't enforce diversity from the top down, and then go out and pretend it's more representative of the population, as though minority voters only care about identity. people won't tolerate that.
"i know that she works for the bankers on bay street, but look - she's black. you're not going to vote for that white person just because she better represents your views are you? what are you, a race traitor?"
they honestly think that's going to work - because they're actually secretly brutal racists, just like the democrats are.
it wasn't always this way, and there are good people in the liberal party. the liberals don't have the history that the democrats do, and quite the opposite. but, this leadership team is horrific and needs to go.
