Get To Know A Racist Candidate: Luigi Gino Del-Ciotto

And her (essentially) one woman hate group targeting First Nations' peoples End Race Based Laws:


I'm not exactly breaking this story. Mr. Del-Ciotto's association with Tittler and ERBL was reported in the "Summerland Review" back on September 20 making mention of one particular screen shot  Del-Ciotto claimed that the accusations amounted to a smear campaign:
“I have absolutely zero, zero dislike towards our First Nation people. My issues are with how things work. How our federal government handles things.”
One screen shot mentioned in the article appears to be this one from 2015:


Mr. Del-Ciotto seems to think that invoking the attempted genocide of First Nations peoples by Americans and the Spanish, taken in the right context, isn't so bad.

For those who might be interested, here are some of the other screen shots starting in 2013 and continuing through 2016:

Mr. Del-Ciotto and Ms. Tittler had a bit of a brief falling out around this time, though they continued a working relationship.

Right.

It's all about the context.
