What’s not to like about this alternative to private sector profit-gouging? (Answer: nothing! We’ve done it before as a nation And it’s doable to boot!! Read through thread to find out how) 🧡🧡🧡
Today, I’m excited to announce the first major policy solution of our campaign: a concrete plan to break the power of corporate monopolies and build the next generation of public options.

“It’s time to take the power back from the price-fixing corporate cartels that have a stranglehold on our economy and put it in the hands of the people,” Lewis said. “It’s time to build a new generation of public options to reduce costs and raise our quality of life.”
As part of his bold new vision for Canada, Avi Lewis, the progressive vying to lead the New Democratic Party, has proposed a series of "public options" for everything from groceries to telecoms to banking to address the nation's cost-of-living crisis.
NDP Candidate Avi Lewis Calls for 'Public Options' to Fight High Costs of Groceries, Housing, and Telecoms in Canada
“When people are being gouged at the checkout aisle, on their phone bills, and in their rents, it’s clear that the market is failing,” Lewis said.

Danielle Smith just suckered Mark Carney into reviving the Northern Gateway pipeline.
This is the antithesis of "nation-building."
There is no economic, political or environmental case for Stephen Harper's dream.
This won't end well.
For Canada or Carney.

Huge moment in this interview with @frankdomenic.bsky.social.

NDP leadership candidate @avilewis.ca puts proportional representation on the national stage and makes it the non negotiable democratic reform we need.

When leadership contenders acknowledge the core issue, the national debate shifts.

I’m with the 92% of Albertans—including farmers and rural landowners—that expect the oil & gas industry to clean up their spent wells and pipelines. When polluters pay, it creates decades of full-time work for oil & gas workers. So why do Conservatives let them get away with it?

Colombia is co-hosting the first international conference for the phase-out of fossil fuels. Because they know this industry is a dead end — for resource workers and their communities, for all of us.

Where the hell is Canada under Carney? Trying to hide from the future by running back to the past.

My position is clear: I am unequivocally opposed to any new fossil fuel development — including LNG.

We must have the courage to say this to every government, of any stripe: if you’re building new pipelines or fossil infrastructure, this shall not pass.

What does the future of the NDP have in store? A lot of good, perhaps. But first the party and it's next leader have a lot to figure out.

UPDATE: We just surpassed 35,000 views for our 2-part #IdleNoMore docuseries, a movement with great resonance for today's era of renewed extractivism, infrastructure and even greater state surveillance of Indigenous resistance
Well, would ya look at that: the two-part APTN News doc that I co-created with @anishinaboy.bsky.social on the late 2012 emergence of #IdleNoMore just passed 30,000 views on YouTube!

Looking forward to this. Monday evening, I'll be joining @avilewis.ca (who happens to be both my political champ & my brother-in-law) to talk federal climate policy. Join us! 👇
Carney just tabled a budget that’s firmly on the side of fossil fuel CEOs, not working people. On Nov 17th, join @avilewis.ca and @sethdklein.bsky.social to talk about what real climate leadership would look like and how we can build it together.

Why are we hearing about building more pipelines? Do they make sense for Canada's economy? And what about our emissions goals?

We mapped 800,000 kilometres of pipelines in Canada and tried to get to the bottom of these questions in our latest explainer video. #cdnpoli
