So you will vote for the party that made someone who had Anti-gay comments a cabinet minister over a party who has no record of the sort?


It is definitely troubling that Morton is still a PC candidate. For me, there is no doubt a certain amount of holding my nose when I vote PC. However, I can take some comfort in knowing that Redford's human rights pedigree is among the strongest in the entire province (entire country perhaps.) And as far as I know, we haven't heard any homophobic comments from a PC MLA or candidate since Redford became leader (admittedly, its a small sample size.)
