This is really awesome. I am really excited about Avi’s policies and ideas and glad he’s not shying away from climate leadership!

It’s time for the NDP to tell the truth: we must get off fossil fuels fast—with no worker left behind. Today I’m unveiling our Green New Deal: a plan to tackle both the climate and affordability crises by creating 1M good jobs, lowering bills, and building a new economy. Join us: lewisforleader.ca

Today, Poilievre announced that he’ll scrap the industrial carbon tax. So, I thought I’d repost this gem where he responds to my question by saying that the industrial carbon tax “doesn’t exist.” In case you needed a reminder that Pierre Poilievre straight up lies - just like Trump.

Excluding Karina Gould from Carney’s cabinet, the only Liberal Leadership candidate who truly spoke to the grassroots progressive values that led to Trudeau’s election in 2015, is… a mistake. Trying to win conservative votes is what led to Kamala losing but 🤷🏻‍♀️ what do I know lol

A weekend column from me, on why we shouldn’t obsess over a new oil pipeline, and instead focus on the the energy-related stuff Canada can actually get done to strengthen itself in the face of the Trump threat. www.theglobeandmail.com/business/com...
theglobeandmail.com
Opinion: Why Canada should heed its Energy Minister’s call to calm down about oil pipelines
Despite the security dangers posed by U.S. President Donald Trump, there is no way a new – or resurrected – pipeline project would be completed in less than five years

A super scary response from Canadian politicians these days is instead of building up our energy independence from America by investing more in renewables, many (incl. Mark Carney!) are pushing more oil and gas exports to other countries as a solution. More fossil fuels are NEVER a climate solution!

Gaza belongs to Palestine — and no one else. Trump's threats are utter madness. They violate every international law. Destabilize the region. Threaten the ceasefire. Canada must stand up to this forcefully. Gaza is not for sale, it belongs to Palestinians.
Screenshot of a CBC news article in which Trump suggests permanently displacing Palestinians so the US can take over Gaza.

I applaud the PM for avoiding a trade war, but the tariff threat was never about fentanyl and the borde. Trump is telling Canadians what to do by holding our economy hostage. The goal post will be pushed back. He is a direct threat to our sovereignty. #canpoli

Poilievre’s cronies are going to Mar-a-Lago to kiss Trump’s ring. The Peterson-Poilievre interview showed that the CPC leader isn’t afraid of using fascist-leaning language like the president elect in the US. He won’t stop Trump’s tariff, he’ll work with Trump to sell it to Canadians.

I love seeing discourse that if the NDP votes non-confidence after calling for the PM to step down, they’re handing over the election to PP. Freeland who was literally Trudeau’s #1 champion doesn’t have confidence in his leadership, why should the NDP?

While people are talking about the $61.9 billion debt in the Fall Economic Statement, here’s a reminder that the gov could impose an excess profits tax on oil and gas, reduce income inequality, and make billions. Also, they can stop funding fossil fuel companies making record profits. #cdnpoli
