The NDP were trying to do one of two things
1) Either Steal the thunder of Trudeau by holding their convention on the same weekend as the Trudeau election. They were probably hoping that the big news was NDP not socialists anymore.
2) They throught that the press would be so busy with Trudeau that they would ignore the wackiness.
Not sure which
