In some places the struggle against Canadian imperialism involves throwing violence at an embassy. In other instances, it revolves around convincing a social democratic party to take people’s money. Will the NDP accept $133,000+ and allow members to decide if they support internationalism?

Yves Engler for NDP Leader @yvesforndpleader.bsky.social · 28/01/2026

Concretely, the NDP taking Mugyenyi supporters’s money would grant the campaign access to the large NDP membership list to promote withdrawing from NORAD or rescinding the anti-Palestinian terror list. Passing vetting after such a long struggle would also attract media attention to the platform.

Yves Engler for NDP Leader @yvesforndpleader.bsky.social · 28/01/2026

As such, getting the party to accept an anti-imperialist candidate in the leadership race would represent a significant breakthrough. It would legitimize the ideas in the platform such as withdrawing from NATO and the Haiti Core Group or training a Palestinian force to oversee Israel’s occupation.

Last month the NDP refused to accept my candidacy and the funds raised to participate in the race. Now, supporters have pledged over $100,000 to get Bianca Mugyenyi in the race. Will the NDP take the money? Or once again deny members the right to decide if they support anti-imperialism.
