In the wake of allegations against former NDP MP Peter Stoffer and Saskatchewan NDP MP Erin Weir, Stiles told members that the party's harassment policy has failed too many women in its ranks. NDP delegates are meeting in Ottawa for the party's annual policy convention. (Fred Chartrand/Canadian Press)It's not just the NDP's handling of harassment that is testing party unity this weekend.
