So why didn’t I run again?
Because I spoke up.
I ran for Party President last minute on a platform to challenge the divestment of resources from the #NDP grassroots.

Over 30% of the Convention delegates agreed with us.
We exposed the rebate debacle for what it was. We challenged their handling of Convention, and their refusal to make the space accessible.
We challenged the National Director’s vision.

This leaves many Riding Associations unable to even use the standard system (Populus) available for NDP campaigns.
