He was supported by Svend Robinson and Libby Davies.
The two left-wing outcasts of the federal caucus.
Gee I wonder why people think the NDP is now a liberal lite party. The left wing of the party supported Jack and that gave him his win. The left wing listened to those two outcasts.
If your views are rampant in the party I would not be surprised to see Libby not run in the next election. Then East Van could get an NDP "Stepford" MP just Like Burnaby Douglas has.
