Document depicts executive director’s involvement in the People’s Party of Canada as a founding member and his ‘admiration’ of right-wing figures including Donald Trump
Sources in the Official Opposition BC United party have leaked a file on the “extremism” of the B.C. Conservatives’ executive director, Angelo Isidorou, less than two weeks after the parties’ leaders announced a deal to work together.
The seven-page report titled “Angelo Isidorou’s Extremism” was intended for use in the province’s Oct. 19 election, but was compiled before BC United Leader Kevin Falcon suspended his party’s campaign last month, urging support for the B.C. Conservatives instead. Isidorou, who describes himself as a Canadian conservative who abhors all forms of extremism, says in a statement he was being a “dumb” first-year university student when he wore the MAGA hat at the opening of the former Trump International Hotel and Tower in 2017.
The opposition research document also included screenshots of Isidorou’s social media activity, including a post saying, “Buckle up, it’s riot season,” in connection to Black Lives Matter protests.
