Another extremist BC Conservative candidate.

David Williams shared a map of Western Canada as “a protectorate of the United States.” Lorne Doerkson kept him on the ballot.

He’s not the only one. Throughout this campaign, Lorne Doerkson has let candidates with extreme, hateful and harmful views stay on the ballot. That includes his campaign director, who posted “F*** Islam.” More than 30 Muslim organizations have called on Doerkson to remove her. He hasn’t.
