The CEO of Scotiabank has endorsed the “Donroe Doctrine”. Canadian capitalists have long supported US imperialism in the hemisphere but backing the murderous kidnapping of Venezuela’s president while Trump threatens to make Canada the 51st state seems almost well… treasonous.

Mark Carney has radically militarized Canadian society and handed the bill to working people. The former investment banker has gutted climate protections, trampled Indigenous rights, and overseen a sharp erosion of democratic priorities.

As part of justifying Trump’s crass imperial aggression in Venezuela Canadian officials have taken up the mantra of “democracy”. In one post on the weekend Mark Carney opined about

The depth of Canadian military ties to US is so extensive it’s all but impossible for US to commit some major military crime without Canadian forces involvement. Trump mentioned US Space Command role’s in US raid to kidnap Maduro. Did this Canadian general play a role?

Canada effectively endorses Trump’s flagrant violation of international law & kidnapping of head of state. Incredible part, it’s not impossible to imagine Trump doing same thing to Carney or Anand

Early Saturday morning the US bombed several spots in Caracas and elsewhere in Venezuela. The US president says Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife have been “captured”. These clear acts of imperial aggression are designed to ratchet up pressure on the

Canada should immediately:
Denounce US aggression

Ensure it isn’t offering any military assistance to US war on Venezuela

Withdraw from Operation Caribbe

Rescind sanctions contributing to Trump’s criminal blockade

Restart diplomatic relations with Caracas

The president of one of Canada’s largest corporations says my asking a leading capitalist about donating to the Israeli military reflects “runaway hate”. Harley Finkelstein’s twisting of the truth would be amusing if it didn’t enable Palestinian suffering & attacks on Canadian civil liberties.

Legislation is needed to restrict CEO to average worker pay. As part of my bid to lead the NDP we’ve called for federally regulated firms to be restricted from paying execs no more than 10x their lowest paid workers.

Canada’s highest-paid CEOs made an average of $16.2-million in 2024, report says
Gap between their payout and average worker wages widened to a record 248 times more

Does Avi Lewis “profoundly disagree” with my campaign’s call to shut down the tar sands?
Or to convert Real Estate Investment Trust units into co-ops? Or to expand indigenous jurisdiction? Or to eliminate billionaires?

Canada is directly supporting Donald Trump’s criminal blockade of Venezuela. It’s also assisting US violence that could spur unimaginable devastation. The US navy recently seized a tanker carrying oil from Venezuela to Cuba.

Avi Lewis has driven his supporters down an authoritarian, anti-socialist, path. The NDP leadership candidate’s role in assisting the party establishment’s bid to crush an insurgent campaign doesn’t portend well for an individual whose family’s history is steeped in crushing the left.
