Choosing a political party and leader to support often boils down to evaluating the portion size of hypocrisy you can stomach. If you are unaware of the hypocrisy then you are suffering cognitive dissonance — the discord between belief and behaviour.
Dissonance is rarely transparent — such is the case when evaluating whether the economic policies proposed by federal NDP Leader Thomas Mulcair would be good for B.C.
Mulcair promises to revitalize Canada’s manufacturing sector, but as he said during a campaign stop in Vancouver, the NDP is committed to “creating markets for Canada’s natural resources” as long as they are developed sustainably.
