Harry Lali officially inthe leadership race‘Wear your passion on your sleeve’

Thursday morning in Merritt, andlater in Surrey, Harry held press confer-ences to officially announce his candida-cy for the NDP leadership race.

“At the outset I would like to statethat I am NOT the Candidate of theEstablishment of the BCNDP, and NORhave I sought the endorsement of theEstablishment of the BCNDP.

In the next three months I will pro-vide details of my platform

My candidacy is about the people,about the rank and file members of theBCNDP. My candidacy is about change,party renewal and about rebuilding. Mycandidacy is about democracy andinclusion, NOT exclusion – equity quo-tas are an affront to democracy. My can-didacy is about consultation and collab-oration – it is time to unite the workingpeople and small business in thisprovince based on common values andinterests….

My candidacy will be policy-focused, principled, and NOT afraid toSPEAK THE TRUTH. I will focus on thetraditional values of the NDP – compas-sion, equality of economic opportunity,social justice, and the recognition of thecontributions of small-town, ruralBritish Columbia. I will PUT PEOPLEFIRST, not pollsters, not political pun-dits, and certainly NOT Howe Street.

It is time to elect an NDP Leader andpoliticians who will listen to the rank and file party members, and speak tothe needs of Rural British Columbians.

I am that Leader. ” Harry Lali
