Hall apologized for his tweets but defended himself, telling the Canadian Press, “I have countless friends that are women, my girlfriend, my mother, my sister, my grandmas who are no longer with me. And I am not by any means sexist.”
Manitoba NDP has called on Liberal Party leadership to remove Hall from candidacy.
