HALIFAX — A Nova Scotia Progressive Conservative constituency campaign manager has resigned amid accusations of"vote-buying" with Tim Hortons gift cards.
Zwicker said Corkum-Greek did not know this had happened, and he said he is"sincerely sorry" that his actions caused a distraction from the campaign. “A Nova Scotia Conservative candidate allegedly out there bribing Nova Scotians to vote for her and her party — was this an isolated incident? This is certainly not behaviour people expect from their elected officials in this day and age," she continued.
“It wouldn’t be uncommon for political events to have coffee and doughnuts, this might be a spin on that. But we’ll let Elections Nova Scotia have their say," he said, speaking to reporters before Zwicker issued a statement about his resignation.
