Political cartoonist and Halifax mayoral candidate talk about race

Information Morning Nova Scotia

A political cartoon in the Chronicle Herald caused quite a stir recently. Michael De Adder drew the cartoon, in response to the unusual number of mayoral candidates running in Halifax. But for Darryl Johnson, the only Black candidate running for mayor, the cartoon felt like targeted racism. The two men have since met in person to reconcile their perspectives. They came into our studio to talk about how that went.
