Valerie Docherty, Minister of Community Services and Seniors, was reported to have sworn at Opposition MLA James Aylward in the legislature hallway. While some say this behavior warrants resignation, the author found it refreshing to see real human emotion rather than the typical political BS. There is debate around the acceptability of swearing and whether standards should be applied equally regardless of gender. Docherty and Aylward have since apologized and said they want to move past the incident.
