NDP leadership race coming to close


Kenora-Rainy River MPP Sarah Campbell is backing Nicki Ashton for the Federal NDP leadership.  New Democrats will choose a new leader this weekend.  Campbell says Ashton understands northern and rural issues and is clearly the best person to lead the party.  She adds that the 29-year-old Manitoba MP was one of the few leadership candidates who promised to bring new ideas to the table.
