The NDP Socialist Caucus has zero involvement in the ANDP and no interest in influencing any ANDP policies. They are solely involved federally and in Ontario, that’s it. Add in the fact that ANDP policies and leadership are decided on and influenced solely by its members, all of which are Albertans just like you, and not by members or leadership federally or in other provinces, and it comes across like a like of education on your part and not a valid concern.

Izzle is right in you trying to “both sides” the issue. Saying the UCP has been taken over by extremists “but look at the NDP Socialist Caucus!” that has zero involvement or even interest in involvement with the ANDP is absurd. I feel like you’re better than that and know that isn’t a valid comparison.
I’m just pointing out that they’re extremists in both parties. I think that’s the case with the ANDP as well. And we did get to see some of that ridiculousness last time around with the Tzeporah Berman appointment. I get why they’re adding blue to the logo and trying to push the idea that they’re in the middle. I also understand why NDP supporters here are pushing that narrative.
