Not that I know much about politics in general but it seems so wrong to switch from one party belief to the other the following day.
And update on what's been happening to him.
[H2]Anti-Emerson protesters take message to Ottawa[/H2]
A small plane circling overhead with a banner urging David Emerson to "call home" greeted MPs as Parliament opened today.
The banner was purchased by Manuel Perreda, a Vancouver-Kingsway resident and member of the Campaign to de-Elect David Emerson, a loosely knit community group that formed in reaction to the former Liberal minister's defection to the Conservatives two weeks after the federal election.
Like others who have joined the anti-Emerson protest in recent weeks, Perreda said he's angry over the politician's decision to cross the floor, and he wants Emerson to return to his riding and address his constituents' concerns directly -- a request that Emerson has, so far, refused.
To that end, Perreda -- who said he voted Liberal in the last election -- fronted the $1,605 cost of the banner, though he was hoping to recoup some of that expense from campaign supporters who attended a "democracy walk" in the riding on Sunday.
"Something has to be done," Perreda said Sunday of his involvement in the Emerson protest, now entering its eighth week.
