Well the Sam he is (likely) referring to is Sam Hersch a Local NDP campaigner. (Look up his Linkedin Profile) He has worked for Shawn Menard, Catherine Mckenney, Rawlson King, Nikki ashton, and Joel harden previously in one form or another.
Courage Ottawa, is just another of many local NDP organizations with Sam on the board or helping out. The other being Horizon Ottawa
When someone is using these organization as cover to slander, attack, and outright play dirty politics I would not expect them to be treated with any amount of respect.

Sam's work history should not be justification for dismissing the work of an organization he is but one member of. He is not using Courage "as a cover", this is not some tournament of shadows being put on by the Big Left.

He is an upper member of both orgs, and his work history is completely relevant to the discussion at hand.
Why? because Sam Hersch is using these organization to slander sitting democratically elected councilors without having to put his name to the opinions espoused, or have them linked back to the other councilors that support him.
