Those comments are pretty old and I think Mr. May said the right things after they surfaced:

Quote:
“I wish to state clearly that I do not believe or accept the characterization of Islam as a militant religion or movement, especially in light of important recent and diverse scholarship that is working to overcome misconceptions regarding Muslim history and philosophy,” he wrote. “I commit to continuing my personal education about Islam, and all faiths, in my role as Chief.”
But, yeah, for this particular position, its disqualifying. I don't understand why the Alberta government is sitting on this for so long.
