Marit was my local MPP. She has never once responded to my emails or phone calls or tweets expressing concern over disability issues over the course of the past 3 years, through COVID.

At one point her staffers told me they'd connect me with some locals organizing around those issues, but never got back to me.

I've criticized them in the past for refusing to LEAD with issues. They are far far too inclined to take "acceptable" positions, rather than to educate the public about what progressive policies can do.
Here we are taking baby steps, when the far right is just simply running away with it. NDP needs to grow some backbone.
just need to look at NDP here in BC, the entire party has abandoned progressive causes to maintain the status quo on everything from the environment to health
