Avi Lewis was asked to sum up the future of the labour movement in one word.
His answer? “General Strike.”
And he’s right. That’s the future — solidarity, worker power, and real change.

8/11 #HeatherMcPherson, an Edmonton MP, is the "presumed front-runner."
She is broadly seen as the "establishment candidate," with backing from key party organizers and, notably, from former Alberta Premier #RachelNotley.

2/11 First is #RobAshton, the "dark horse" and president of the #ILWU Canada.
He's a B.C. dockworker, not a "policy wonk."
"I talk like I talk at work. I'm not gonna bullshit you," he told CBC.
He is seen as a "raw, unvarnished and grounded" persona.

PS: Provincial NDP parties vary, in that some are legitimately working to achieve something tangible in their own right, like in both Alberta and British Columbia. I don't deny that. Federally, however, I don't know think they're actually helping anyone. #CDNpoli #NDP #NDPLdr

Always interesting to see what New Democrats are saying about the future, and the recent past, of their party. My ongoing issue with the NDP is that they exist as contrarians, usually serving only to elect conservative governments. #CDNpoli #NDP #NDPLdr www.youtube.com/watch?v=3U20...

Horserace polling now? Why? a) Minority Parliament. b) Parties poll all the time. You should have the same data they do. c) Current voting intentions have clear impact on party dynamics, e.g. you think next to no contestants for #NDPLdr is an accident? Look at their numbers! #cdnpoli

This was an extremely interesting read, dealing with the legal and financial challenges facing the NDP. I respectfully disagree with FVC that proportional rep would have been a game changer but I do think the NDP deserves this after the way they have behaved in the last years. #CDNpoli #NDP #NDPLdr
Sobering read on the financial strife the @ndp.ca faces after collapsing to just 7 seats.
If they’d prioritized proportional representation and held the Liberals to account during 6 years of minority rule for breaking their electoral reform promise, would it be different? thehub.ca/2025/07/09/f...

The entry fee is only $100K. Tells me, right off the bat, that they have no serious contenders for the job. If you can only raise $100K, you have no business running to lead a national party. #cdnpoli #ndpldr www.ctvnews.ca/politics/art...
