Is Elizabeth May someone that we want shaping any kind of public policy? Not only is her Green Party growing, but she's an ally of Stephan Dion.
Quote:
Green Party Leader and Stéphane Dion ally Elizabeth May criticized the presence of Canadian and other ISAF forces in Afghanistan as representing a “Christian/Crusader heritage,” that would actually “fuel” the “jihad.”
Elizabeth May’s comparison of the Afghan protection and reconstruction effort as a Christian Crusade is evidence of her shocking ignorance of foreign policy, Afghanistan and the current mission.

This quote is from the first link I came across, and I've never heard of the website before:

That said, those words come directly from an actual Green Party press release:

In order to grow her party, shouldn't she be watching her words a lot more?
