As NDP health critic, I met with Health Minister Marjorie Michel to push for stronger public health care, expanded pharmacare, better dental coverage & my Mental Health Parity Act. Health care must be based on need, not income or postal code. Patients before profits. That's what we're fighting for.

Steel is a strategic industry that underpins our economy, our sovereignty, and our national security. It’s time for us to nationalize Stelco to protect Canadian jobs and assert control over this critical sector.

Stelco is laying off 500 Canadian steelworkers. The CEO of their US parent company, Cleveland-Cliffs, is a vocal Trump supporter who has been cheering on the tariffs. This is a MAGA attempt to deindustrialize Canada and harm our productive capacity.

BC’s Filipino Canadian community has worked for decades to build a permanent cultural centre. That goal is now closer than ever. I secured a federal funding commitment in the budget & Premier Eby has pledged $15M. The community has led. BC has stepped up. Now Ottawa must deliver.

This afternoon, Parliament will vote for the first time on Bill C-39, which fundamentally attacks the rights of workers, Indigenous rights, and environmental protections. Yesterday, I spoke about this bill and how it undermines the constitutional right to strike.

Proud to meet with ILWU Canada President Tom Doran to discuss the Liberals' attack on the constitutional right to strike. Nation-building starts with empowering the workers who literally build our nation. The NDP will stand shoulder to shoulder with workers every step of the way.

Bank of Canada security officers have been on strike for 100+ days. The Bank has been caught twice violating federal anti-scab law and even hired Pinkertons, a contractor notorious for violent strikebreaking. PM Carney says he stands with workers. Why won't he condemn this corporate lawbreaking?

NDP parliamentary leader @donvdavies.bsky.social says National Post column targeting NDP leader @avilewis.ca is "appalling, irresponsible and likely criminal" The column calls for Lewis to be dealt with by way of ancient "Jewish law" while invoking loaded language used by Yitzhak Rabin's assassin

Don Davies v @DonDavies • 1h This is appalling, irresponsible and likely criminal. Threatening and inciting others to remove a Canadian political leader for his political views is outrageous. Both the author and the National Post must retract, apologize and reverse this message at once. Samira Mohyeddin /jau Absolutely diabolical. National Post puts a bullseye on Avi Lewis through the rabid ramblings of Yoni Goldstein who invokes Halakhah and Leviticus on how to deal with Jews. Writing Lewis "presents a clear and present danger to the Jewish community" & other Jews are "duty- bound to = NATIONAL POST Yoni Goldstein: Jewish law tells us how to deal with Avi Lewis His Yom Kippur message was indefensible By Yoni Goldstein, Special to National Post Published Sep 29, 2026 Last updated 17 hours ago 4 minute read • 190 Comments

S..

@SMohyeddin • 10h = NATIONAL POST None of this applies, however, when a Jewish person presents a clear and present danger to the Jewish community. When that happens, Jewish thought is much more forceful: you must prevent the perpetrator from causing harm. Jewish law developed two character sketches to describe such scenarios. The first is known as a "mosar" — a Jewish person who informs to oppressive authorities, potentially leading to the imprisonment, torture or death of community members. The second, called a "rodef," refers to a Jew who is actively pursuing another with the intent to harm or kill them. In both scenarios, the law is clear that a jew is duty-bound to step in. Protecting the community and its members is the most important thing. 244

We are proposing to create three new tax brackets adding 1% each at $500k, $750k and $1 million taxable income. That increases progressive taxes, and we are the only party addressing the need to make the rich pay more.

Don Davies @donvdavies.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

A new PBO report confirms adding new tax brackets for the wealthiest 0.3% would raise over $1 billion a year. Instead of selling off Canada’s strategic public assets like airports, we should be asking those who have benefited most from our society to contribute their fair share.

The fact Liberals expanded their ability to suppress job action by workers and to ignore environmental laws in a bill intended to attract investment is not an accident. It’s clearly Liberals caving in to the corporate sector and foreign investors’ demand.

The Liberals’ new bill allows the Minister to violate workers’ right to strike based solely on her opinion after taking into account any consideration she wants. That’s not guardrails at all - it’s pure discretion.

The right to withdraw labour is the foundation of real negotiating power for workers. By attacking that constitutional right, the Liberals are making our country weaker. New Democrats will always stand with Canadian workers.

Vancouver’s airport - YVR - is already considered world class and contracts to manage other airports. It is admired, efficient and there have been no calls from anyone to privatize its operations. Carney’s Liberals moving to privatize are acting out of pure corporate ideology.

Don Davies @donvdavies.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

The Liberals’ move to privatize airport operations is a mistake. Experience shows that adding a profit element can’t help but increase costs and drive cuts to service. And any foreign ownership of critical infrastructure touching our national security is clearly unwise in these times.

As the Carney govt aims to attract foreign investment, we need to ask ourselves some important questions. What are we selling? To who? What should be owned/developed by Canadians? Canada is one of the wealthiest countries in the world. Let’s make sure it’s controlled by Canadians.

As Canadians watch their communities burn, the Carney government is spending millions of tax dollars to mislead them.
That’s deceptive marketing and it’s against the law.
Taxpayer-funded advertising should never be used to spread misinformation.
