B.C. Conservative Leader John Rustad said in an emailed statement Friday he was “appalled and deeply saddened” by Sapozhnikov’s comments. He said her “remarks do not reflect the values of our party or the vision we have for a united British Columbia, and we are taking this matter seriously.”
But Rustad made no indication he was considering her removal from the party.
I don’t think you’re taking it that seriously, Rustad. If you won’t remove her from the party then it’s hard to see how her views don’t mesh just fine with your values.
Marina Sapozhnikov, who finished only 23 votes behind the NDP’s Dana Lajeunesse in Juan de Fuca-Malahat, said that before Europeans came to North America, First Nations Peoples “didn’t have any sophisticated laws. They were savages. They fought each other all the time.”
Right, that notably peace loving continent, Europe. You are Ukrainian, Marina. Your birthplace is literally under invasion from another European state, today.
Ukraine doesn’t want her either.
Warbus would be displeased.
