Other candidates have impressive backgrounds but only Heather McPherson can take the fight to Mark Carney and Pierre Poilievre the moment she becomes leader. #bcpoli #cdnpoli 4/4

It is essential to have an experienced, knowledgeable leader hitting the ground running, not learning on the job – the NDP’s situation demands it. #bcpoli #cdnpoli 3/4

As the only leadership candidate who is a Member of Parliament, Heather can immediately represent the interests of working people, question the Liberal government and oppose the Conservatives - from Day One – not outside the House of Commons. #bcpoli #cndpoli 2/4

I’m pleased to endorse Heather McPherson MP for leader of the federal New Democratic Party as clearly the best choice to be the #NDP’s voice in Canada. - Bill Tieleman, political strategist, ex-Communications Director to #BCNDP Premier Glen Clark 1/4 #bcpoli #cdnpoli @heathermcpherson.bsky.social

5) The Leap Manifesto - why did Avi Lewis and friends pull this Trojan Horse inside the federal #NDP in 2016 - and in doing so attempt to change it into the Green Party in all but name? 6/6

3) Why is Avi Lewis courting and promoting endorsements from key environmental activists who support the provincial and federal Green Party and regularly denounce the BC #NDP government of both David Eby and the late former Premier John Horgan? 4/6

2). Why has Avi Lewis given a central, starring role in his federal NDP leadership campaign to Anjali Appadurai, who was disqualified from running for the BC #NDP leadership for breaking the rules? 3/6

1) Why did Avi Lewis appear to endorse BC Green Party leadership candidate Emily Lowan, now Green leader and BC NDP opponent? #NDP 2/6

Avi Lewis needs to answer 5 very hard questions if he wants to be federal NDP leader Does Avi Lewis want to be the federal NDP leader - or leader of the federal Greens? It's a question federal New Democratic Party members sho...

46 years ago today, The Clash released "Train In Vain," the third and final single from London Calling, and not originally listed on the album's track listing, appearing as a hidden track as it was added to the record at the last minute when the sleeve was already in production.

Canadian separatists optimistic after meetings with Trump officials U.S. officials tamped down on the meetings with the Alberta separatists, saying no senior staffers were present and no commitments were made.

Time for the government to call in Pete Hoekstra to register official complaints. He has a long and ugly history of foreign interference.
Supporting treason is reason enough to kick him out of our country.
