Well the NDP would know all about issues in political parties wouldn't they?

Which equity cards do francophones get?
Blue and white clearly.
What arguments do you have besides this?
Avi wasnt leader during the convention. Try to keep up
Equity in the party is more democratic… unless you like totalitarian parties?
Surure Avi, suuure they are...

Hope springs eternal. Avi Lewis seems to be taking a page from the political playbook of say it often enough and hopefully people will bite and believe it true.
It is true for me, at least. Next election, I'm voting NDP.
He’s not wrong but more so for the provincial branch party that’s drowning in their corrupted past, and apparently present.
i’d say the federal too , 12 years of turning the country into a dumpster fire is enough
Delusional party with delusional leader makes delusional announcement.
Did I miss a PP announcement?
Has no one informed Avi that those cracks won’t be filled by the NDP?
I don’t understand the sarcastic comments. Liberals are +4% nationally and the backslide of environment and culture issues (CRTC et al) are very important to Quebec it’s. Now Avi Lewis, where is your legal weed or electoral reform…?
This subreddit is very astroturfed. Low-traffic threads on r/canada are sat on by permanently online right-wingers. They like to control certain topics and downvote the shit out of anyone with a dissenting opinion. You'll go from 1 to -30 in seconds. There's a massive difference between a thread with 0 upvotes and under a hundred comments and threads that draw in more than just the base of this subreddit. It's night and day; it goes from far-right to moderate real quick.

Fun fact: Avi Lewis wants to reverse Carneys immigration cuts, and give permanent residency status to temporary foreign workers https://thewalrus.ca/ndp-leader-avi-lewis-wants-to-reverse-carneys-immigration-cuts/
The equity card system was insane. Do I think we should give underheard voices a chance to speak? I agree but there’s gotta be a better way
He also wants to completely eliminate the TFW program, something which both the CPC and LPC support
Anyone who can watch the Winnipeg NDP convention and still vote for the federal NDP is a dangerous extremist in my book. The NDP oozes authoritarianism.
I attended that convention and wouldn’t consider myself an extremist. For some reason I doubt you really understand the meaning of that and authoritarianism – they don’t just mean “things I don’t like”.
Idgaf man Avi had a great speech that combined some idealistic lefty stuff with bread and butter everyday issues Dangerous extremist is the fact that Carney is literally destroying online privacy and pivoting towards authoritarianism with stuff like Bill C22 that basically every other party from NDP to Conservative has condemned as well as civil liberties groups
They are not even close to a serious party and they know it
