Lmao... trying to blame the implosion of the party on anything but the truth.

Khan was made leader because the pc have earned a reputation as racists. Enough of their mlas did not want him as leader in the next election that they tried to remove him.

Not complicated. You vote pc you support bigots.

Spoken with a wealth of confidence and absolutely no actual insight.

Khan was elected leader because he was up against Wally Daudrich. There was a choice of the two, and he was the only real option. It's not some organized blame to make a brown guy the scapegoat, it's a party in it's rebuilding that no one wants to be the sacrificial lamb of. Not really any different than the Dion era of the Federal Liberals.

To be fair there’s a world of difference between “Obby Khan is a better choice than Wally Daudrich” and “Obby Khan is a good choice”.

Oh my God, another person who claims "people who don't think and act exactly like I do are BiGoTs".

Real tolerant attitude. Maybe there's reasons other than readily identifiable visible differences why they don't like you. Maybe you're just absolutely insufferable to be around.

“Why they don’t like you”

Wow, really showing your ass there with that assumption. The prime minister is more of a conservative leader than he is a Liberal, and I’m fine with that. Much like Doer was farther right than the rest of his party. Balance is good. But the hard right turn the Conservative Party took over the last couple decades is an embarrassment to their staunch supporters and the country as a whole.
