Mere hours into the first day of an election campaign, the B.C. NDP announced that a candidate was leaving the race over incendiary online comments.
Dayleen Van Ryswyk, NDP candidate for Kelowna-Mission, will step down after the BC Liberal party sent out a release calling for her resignation and included a copy of comments (PDF) she had made in an online community forum. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/british-columbia/hours-into-election...
With regard to First Nations, the comments included, “If their ancestors sold out too cheap it’s not my fault and I shouldn’t have to be paying for any mistake”.
Oh you WILL pay. You will DEFINITELY pay...
