Green Party myths
After a few days of public wrangling that included threats of a lawsuit, the Green Party yesterday won its fight with the consortium of Canadian broadcast networks that produce the federal party leaders’ debates. Green leader Elizabeth May will be participating.
To me, that’s unfortunate. Make a few threats to the right people, with a few able lawyers to back you up, and you’ll generally get what you want. But enough about the Green Party’s tactics. Significantly more relevant are the arguments the Greens have used to justify a place at the debates.
