It is largely irrelevant when it is in ridings they will not win.


Aaron Gunn still stands as a Conservative candidate in a safe CPC riding on Vancouver Island.

A post on X from June 2021 reads "Residential schools were asked for by Indigenous bands in Eastern Ontario when John A. Macdonald was still a teenager, but hey, why let the truth get in the way of a good headline."
UBCIC Grand Chief Stewart Phillip called the posts "absolutely reprehensible and repugnant and completely devoid of any sense of compassion for Indigenous Peoples who suffered enormously through the residential school experience."

"I don't think this man is fit for public office, whether it be federal or provincial or any office that allows him to continue to make these horrible statements," he said.
