If you have interviewed many candidates in recruitment or in politics you probably came anyway with this insight: character should always outweigh credentials. In politics character is often revealed by supple coalition-building skills and the ability to maintain a sharp focus, in the face of noise on all fronts. A councillor who wants to be mayor solely on the strength of their two-term credentials is not qualified. Demanding action on AIDS, homelessness, child poverty and a long list of other social justice issues. Josh Matlow has a long list of municipal successes, but a much shorter list of Liberal supporters, which is curious for a lifelong Liberal partisan.
