Svend Robinson warns NDP to learn from Green victory in Nanaimo GlobeBC
Svend Robinson speaks during a news conference on Parliament Hill in Ottawa, on Jan. 24, 2019. Mr. Robinson said the results of the Nanaimo-Ladysmith by-election are a wake-up call for the NDP, which needs to be bolder on issues such as climate change if it wants to avoid being skipped over by concerned voters.
In 2015, Mr. Manly said the NDP blocked him from running for expressing his disappointment to the party for not speaking out in support of his father, former MP Jim Manly, who was detained by Israel in 2012. The e-mail was later leaked to the media and when he got a phone call asking whether he was disappointed with the party, Mr. Manly said he was. Because of that, he said he wasn’t allowed to run in the 2015 election.
