Avi Lewis on Breakfast Television. His observations on the Libs accepting social conservative Marilyn Gladu was kinda funny. Anyway, as always, he did well in putting forward the progressive vision of the NDP.

Canada's leftwing party, the New Democratic Party (NDP), has a new leader. Avi Lewis is an activist, broadcaster and filmmaker with no hands-on political experience, but a long family history (his grandfather led the NDP at a federal level, and his father is a former leader of the Ontario NDP). @cbcnews@flipboard.com takes a look at what all this might mean for the party, which had a dismal showing in last year's federal election.

Last week, we held a critical conversation on Canada’s complicity in the ongoing genocide in Palestine. Despite the supposed ‘ceasefire,’ Gaza is still being starved, bombed, and invaded by Israel in real time with the support of Canadian-made weaponry.
But our hearts are not only breaking for those in Palestine.
In Iran, parents of 165 school children have just buried their young, after what's been the most deadly event of the US-Israeli-led attack on the country so far. Shamefully, Canada has backed Trump and Netanyahu's war.
From Gaza, to Minab, to Minneapolis, the kidnapping and killing of children in classrooms around the world marks the failure of humanity. Weapons and war are not the answer. Canada must be a force for peace, diplomacy and de-escalation.
Watch my full conversation with Yipeng Ge and Jehad Aliweiwi here: https://www.youtube.com/live/q5KH-__yUtc?si=FMOerokTfzEAOD0B

Trade researcher Stuart Trew joins host Noor Azrieh to argue that more free trade isn’t a master plan; it’s diminishing returns with nicer branding.

Hopefully this is an empty rumour and Boulerice isn't considering it. Given the makeup of the riding in question, it does make sense that it would be him. But, given that he's not identified as a sovereignist in the past, possibly it's someone else.
