So now David Orchard is complaining that he was misled -- Orchard says he was assured Liberal nomination for Sask byelection would be open.
Well, yes, three months ago the nomination for Desnethe-Missinippi-Churchill River WAS open.
Then two months ago, the Saskatchewan provincial election was held, and Joan Beatty won her provincial seat but the provincial NDP lost the election.
So all of a sudden the Liberals had available to them:
1. a woman
2. who is Aboriginal
3. who actually lives in the riding
4. who has actually won elections, and
5. who has been a provincial cabinet minister
David Orchard, however admirable a person he may be, is none of the above.
