Return of the Svend

Hedy Svend Macklin Cauchon.jpg
Heeeee's Baaaaack. Svend Robinson is back into the political arena and running for a job in Ottawa again. Thank the maker! Mr. Robinson was acclaimed as NDP candidate in Vancouver Centre yesterday, setting up a battle with everyone's favorite Vancouver MP, Hedy Fry. Some are calling it "The Battle of the Divas".

On whether or not there is a problem for Robinson to run against the Liberals given his 2004 theft of an expensive diamond ring, fellow NDPer Libby Davies says: ""That is a political culture of corruption that we are dealing with. In Svend Robinson's situation, we're dealing with an individual who had something very unfortunate happen and he immediately took responsibility for it."
