Maureen McTeer's endorsement at the 2003 convention
editAs a delegate to that convention, I saw no such evidence of Maureen McTeer's endorsement. In addition, her memoir, "Im my own Name," Only mentions David Orchard to bemoan his decision to force a second round of voting in 1998.
Orchard's position on same-sex marriage
editThis article states, "Despite holding many leftist economic views, Orchard holds many socially-conservative positions such as his avowed support for the traditional definition of marriage."
Could someone please provide evidence towards this claim? In a search on Google I could not find statements by Orchard either for or against same-sex marriage in Canada. Thanks, Kurieeto 19:57, Feb 13, 2005 (UTC)
- After one week I've received no responses to my request for evidence supporting the current statement in this article about Orchard's views of same-sex marriage. I'm therefore deleting the sentence. Kurieeto 23:09, Feb 20, 2005 (UTC)
Article...
editI won't pull the POV card (I think it conforms to the standard), but this article seems very highly speculative, and kind of paints Orchard as a mastermind of deception. Does anyone else agree?Habsfannova 18:26, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
I removed the line saying "One September poll had the Alliance at 13% and the PCs at 19%." Polls from 2003 generally had the CA and PC parties within the margin of error of each other, so pulling out a particular poll that had a greater difference seems misleading. It could be worth mentioning if Orchard specifically cited that poll in his argument, though.--The Invisible Hand 23:16, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
$70,000
edit"On January 31, 2006, a Toronto judge ordered the Conservative Party of Canada to pay Orchard $70,000, the funds from his 2003 leadership campaign which he had been owed since then." What news since then? Has Orchard been paid? Are the Conservatives dragging their feet? 74.102.58.135 23:04, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
