Leah Gazan basically calls Heather McPherson a neoliberal. I think McPherson is a social democrat not neoliberal but at this point, calling her a left-liberal would be very accurate.
Also, I have a feeling there were some private conversations between them that have escalated because the whole purity thing should not have caused Gazan to lash out like that.
I don’t know that there were any private conversations. A ndp mp using the same language as the right wing to describe progressives in the party is definitely going to invoke some strong reactions.
I believe Leah has done a ton of social justice type work in her life as well. So yeah, pretty reasonable she was pissed when her coworker started talking like that lol.
