The NDP leader made a campaign stop in Richmond today, where one of his candidates came under fire for once belonging to the Communist Party in China.
Adrian Dix says it's just insulting to suggest Canadian citizens who have come from other countries shouldn't participate in politics.
"I think it is so disrespectful that the Liberal party would do it... I am not surprised that they are faking their names when they make these kinds of allegations. It is disrespectful and it's time that this stopped."
Dix again said the Liberals are running a "fact free" campaign that attacks and distorts.
