I visited Gaza in 2009, just months after the Cast Lead massacre. What I saw then shocked and changed me — and there are no words for what has been destroyed now.

We need to end this genocide and dismantle Israel’s apartheid system.

Just 3 days left to buy a membership and vote for the next leader of the NDP! 

Something special is taking shape: sold-out town halls, waves of moving endorsements, thousands of volunteers, and countless conversations. Don’t just watch from the sidelines.

The NDP must be a political home for every worker – white collar, blue collar, or no collar.

That means defending workers’ rights that have been under attack for decades while confronting new threats posed by app-based gig work, AI, and precarious jobs.

Tous les travailleuses et travailleurs, qu'ils soient cols blancs, cols bleus ou sans col, doivent se retrouver au sein du NPD.

Défendons leurs droits face aux attaques passées et aux nouvelles menaces : la gig economy, IA, précarité.

There are only 7 days left to join the NDP to vote in the leadership race.

Don’t take it from me. Take it from the thousands who’ve joined this movement: we're building something big here. For the many, not the money!

How thrilling to be endorsed by a group of authors whose work goes so wide and deep - into the past and future, into ourselves and societies.

We need art and culture in our politics! These storytellers help us understand and imagine the world we need to build together.

There's a lot of daylight between the Carney we heard at Davos – calling out the US’s exercise of naked power and shredding the so-called rules-based international order – and the Carney who has repeatedly capitulated to Trump since taking office.

Canada's big six banks made $70 billion in profits last year on the backs of working people.

So I went to Bay Street to ask bankers whether it’s time for a wealth tax.

If you agree, become a member of the NDP and let’s fight for it together: avilewis.link/join

NDP leadership hopeful @avilewis.ca wants to take some big swings.

But can his optimism and belief in huge progressive change overcome Canadian cynicism?

Today on Bubble Pop, we discussed all that and more (including photo evidence of his time with MuchMusic).

Here's a sneak peek:

Winnipeg, thank you!

From residents at Old Grace Co-op to labour leaders, faith communities, and a powerful night with supporters, this stop was about solutions, solidarity, and strength.

Grateful for every conversation and for the momentum growing here. Onward.

Hey Edmonton! I’ll be in your city on Jan 20 for a community town hall.

We’ll talk big ideas and how we build a government that takes on corporate landlords, grocery monopolies, and bankers — to govern for the many! Plus music, local leaders, & space to connect.

Le logement est devenu le terrain de jeu des riches.

Les propriétaires immobiliers et les investisseurs immobiliers tirent d'énormes profits de la spéculation, tandis que trop de gens sont écrasés par le coût du logement.

Housing in Canada has become a playground for the rich.

Corporate landlords and real estate investors make massive profits off speculation while too many people are crushed by the costs of keeping a roof over their heads.

It's time to restore housing as a human right → https://lewisforleader.ca/
