This is very disappointing. Heather would be establishment NDP offering nothing new. She would likely support the proposed pipeline being shoved on BC. In the debate all she offered was platitudes and slogans, no policy. Avi provided policy, had some french (which is sadly very important), and is the only real progressive candidate to date.
I’d like to argue with you because when this race started I was all in on Heather. I heard her on Canadaland following the national election and she was all fire and brimstone while also being eloquent. I also think and NDP-er from Alberta is a good vibe from a province in a bad place.
And then she announced intentions to run for leader and it’s as you describe: vapid.
I got a note today (since members get all the candidates communications) about policy except there was no policy to be had. Just more platitudes.
Heather does seem to have great empathy for others, and while I think that’s admirable I don’t think that’s the only metric for a leader of the party that wants to be the official opposition.
Avi has indeed been the more impressive of the two and I’ve found his message to be the most concrete - if a little over-rehearsed. At least he has some ideas and is willing to put them out to there.
Agreed. For me it's probably Rob, followrd by Avi, for now.
Yeah, just from the first choice/second choice ratio I kind of suspected that one is a hardliner.
