The NDP candidate for Saint John in the last federal election, Rob Moir isn't saying whether he supported the new NDP leader Thomas Mulcair.
Having said that, Rob Moir tells CHSJ News Mulcair is the type of scrappy personality who'll be able to duke it out with the Prime Minister and the Conservative Party's attack machine.
Moir says the worry that Mulcair will change the policy direction of the NDP is unfounded because the leader has to pay attention to what the party members want.
Moir believes the Harper Government is vulnerable on the bread and butter economic issues of how families are getting by these days and the environment.
