The leader of the Green Party voted against the Iraq war mission, while the deputly leader of that same party voted along with Harper and the Cons for the bombing mission. I'm still waiting for Lizzie to explain to her supporters why the Green Party pretends at every turn that they are the ONLY Party that stands for peace, yet will vote for war. In her rush to prove her high and mighty puritan standards, she has put her partisan interests first. Hyer was elected under the NDP banner. Are we to believe that his supporters are all in favour of this mission? How can one be sure they are representing their constitsuents when in every riding there will be both sides of the issue living there. This is an example of failed leadership as she was unable to convince Hyer that voting against the mission is what the Greens are supposed to stand for. That is why Party discipline is sometimes necessary.
Lizzie wants to have it both ways. She claims to be non partisan but is extremely partisan. She makes claims to represent peace but does not. If you want to lead a Party that stands for anything, then you have to back it up, otherwise you are just another politician that breaks promises.
