Former federal NDP leader Ed Broadbent says the best electoral hope for the party, as it gathers for its virtual convention this week, is the passage of resolutions that help build a “simple, clear and honest” offer to voters.
Mr. Broadbent, the NDP’s leader from 1975 to 1989, said one of his predecessors, Tommy Douglas, always advised picking three points to campaign on, not four, five or six. He used to say “know what you’re talking about and explain them to Canadians, and you have a good chance of winning,” Mr. Broadbent said in an interview.
