My full statement on Zohran Mamdani's historic win.

Zohran Mamdani’s historic win in New York is a beacon of hope and possibility – proof that a people-powered, solutions-focused, democratic socialist campaign can defeat entrenched power in the centre of global wealth.

His campaign did what so many said was impossible. Despite a tidal wave of corporate spending and a chorus dismissing his ideas as “too radical,” voters gave a huge victory to a candidate who spoke directly to the everyday emergency of just trying to get by in a rigged economy, offering concrete solutions as big as the crises working people face.

Like so many Canadians, I’ve been deeply inspired by Mamdani’s campaign – by the way he built power from the ground up, organizing with working people, tenants, young people and a diverse multiracial coalition long shut out of political power.

It’s the same energy and vision that’s driving our campaign here in Canada: a politics that takes on concentrated wealth, offers public options where markets fail, makes life much more affordable, and integrates climate solutions into everything we do.

Mamdani’s victory isn’t an outlier — it’s part of a new wave of bottom-up politics. Its lesson is simple: if you fight for people, people fight back with you.

Tonight, New Yorkers showed that politics rooted in justice, dignity, and solidarity can win — and win big. Canadians are hungry for that same courage and clarity.

Yes! And the current NDP MPs need to vote AGAINST the new budget, to show that the NDP still stands for something!
