Swift Current NDP Campaign Office Vandalized


SWIFT CURRENT — The NDP campaign office in Swift Current was vandalized last night.

A tire jack was thrown through the front window of the office. NDP candidate Aaron Ens was not in the building at the time, nor were any campaign volunteers.

“We’re upset and disturbed,” said Louise Walker, the volunteer office manager. “It’s disgraceful that when a young person steps up to be involved in democracy, he is treated with this kind of violent disrespect.”

The RCMP has been called to the scene. The office is located at 329 Central Ave. North.
