The federal party is advocating for proportional representation for parliament. I am certain more than a few federal MPs agree with Chow that BC should also have proportional representation.

What I am suggesting is that the BCNDP is in no way beholden to the federal party's position. Not in law, not in the party's constitution, and not in practice.

 Ms Chow has the absolute right to her opinion, and to express it. I might suggest, however, that the federal party should concentrate on federal matters and leave the BCNDP to decide what decisions it will take on matters pertaining to BC.
