On opportunities

It seems entirely likely that the Greens will end up following Lib-style anti-democratic advice as to handle pesky outbreaks of riding-level democracy, in this case Stuart Hertzog's intention to challenge Elizabeth May for the party's nomination in Saanich-Gulf Islands. But if they have the slightest bit of foresight, wouldn't they see a nomination contest featuring candidates taking somewhat different angles (but where May would presumably have the far stronger chance of winning) as their best chance of actually assembling the type of organization which they're currently lacking in the riding?

Update: Due credit to the Greens for resisting the temptation to follow the Lib-style advice.
