I loved this story on several levels. Mostly guttural.
Greens pull candidate for ‘anti-Semitic’ remarks

The Canadian PressOTTAWA—The Green Party has turfed one of its candidates just days before an expected federal election call over allegations he made remarks deemed anti-Semitic.
John Shavluk was ejected as the party’s candidate in British Columbia’s Newton-North Delta riding Thursday following word that he made such comments in 2006 in an online forum.
[…]
“Why all of a sudden they’re doing this now? I’m completely in the dark,” he said in an interview after May made her announcement.
Shavluk said he’s worked tirelessly to bring New Democrat and Marijuana Party supporters into the Green fold, and his comments are being used to silence efforts to legalize the drug.
I’m sure he’d be welcomed by the Liberal Party or the “NDP” socialists. They both favor legalizing pot so our kids can more easily smoke it willy-nilly on the streets, because I think they believe it would attract the best and brightest to our country and help Canadian families realize what they call “Canadian values”. Or something. I’m not really sure. Being liberal is hard.
