From Don Braid’s most recent piece in the Herald:
Quote:
One of the smartest things anybody has said about all this comes from Wayne Cao, the former Progressive Conservative politician who was deputy Speaker of the legislature from 2008-12.
“To prevent bad post-election situation,” he wrote on Twitter, “we should have an election law requiring every candidate applicant for any public office to declare under oath, publicly disclosing their personal financial and judicial matters.”
If there were such a law, Chu would have been required to reveal not just the situation with the girl, but a domestic dispute that led to a police call in 2008, as reported by the CBC.
