Rob Ashton for NDP Leader

I’m running to unite the Federal NDP, make workers’ voices, and the voices of everyday people, the driving force of Canadian politics. I hope you’ll join me! https://linktr.ee/robashton_ndp
5. A Central Bank That Works For The People: We’ll give the Bank of Canada a new mandate: full employment. For too long it focused only on low inflation, even if that meant higher unemployment. An economy that serves capital, not people, is a broken economy.

4. No More Corporate Free Rides: Public dollars will come with strings attached. If a company wants a subsidy, it must keep jobs and operations in Canada. No more blank cheques for corporations that take public money, then lay off workers or move jobs abroad.
November 14, 2025 at 8:41 PM
3. Building the Future We Deserve: We’ll create hundreds of thousands of good jobs by investing in housing, clean energy, transit, climate-resilient infrastructure, and modern schools and hospitals—rebuilding the industries that keep Canada moving.
November 14, 2025 at 8:41 PM
2. Good Wages, Strong Standards: Every job will be good-paying. Many of them will be public, union-backed jobs and private employers will be forced to compete for labour by paying and treating workers better. No more race to the bottom.

1. A Job For Everyone Who Wants One: If you're ready to work, the government will guarantee you a job - building homes, maintaining public infrastructure, caring for our seniors, restoring our environment, or supporting our communities. A national jobs guarantee - so no one's left behind.

For too long, this country has worked for the few at the top while the people who actually build it are told to tighten their belts. Politicians call it “the economy." Working people call it what it is: a system rigged for the rich.

That’s why I’m proud to unveil my Good Jobs Promise:

What a week. The stories I’ve heard from workers, families, and community leaders remind me exactly who this campaign is for - all of us who get up every day and keep this country running.

Ottawa friends! I’ll be at The Royal Oak (318 Bank St) this Friday, October 24 from 6–9 PM, come hang out!

Grab a slice, meet some great people, and let’s chat about what matters most to working Canadians. ✊

The working class is all of us.
Every worker. Every caregiver. Every person fighting to be seen and respected. This is our time.✊

The U.S. tariffs are punishing Canadian workers. It’s time to build from within, with Canadian lumber and Canadian jobs.

What Stellantis is doing to workers in Brampton is a slap in the face.

Sending best wishes to @tanille-tanille.bsky.social in her run for NDP leader. Our movement is stronger when passionate people put their names forward. ✊

Today is a great day for workers. With Bill C-247, the NDP is standing up for the right to strike and bargain freely - rights generations of workers fought for.

It’s time Ottawa remembered who keeps this country running. It’s time for workers to have a voice in Ottawa.

From coast to coast to coast, working people are demanding a party that truly represents them, one that fights for their families, their jobs, and their communities.

They deserve that.

It’s time to make a workers’ party.

Je comprends à quel point il est important de pouvoir écouter et parler aux Canadiens et Canadiennes en français.

Je m’engage à apprendre le français, parce que le bilinguisme est essentiel pour diriger et pour unir notre pays.

Quand les travailleurs et travailleuses sont divisé·e·s, c’est la classe dirigeante qui gagne.

Je me présente à la direction du NPD pour bâtir un mouvement qui nous unit et qui redonne le pouvoir à celles et ceux qui travaillent. ✊

The ruling class wins when workers are divided.

I’m running for leader of the NDP to build a movement that unites us and puts power back in the hands of working people. ✊
