Lewis For Leader

Hey Vancouver! Join us tomorrow for a final-push fundraiser! As the leadership race ends, let's make sure Avi has everything he needs to not only win this race, but come out of it with the organizing power we need to rebuild the party and get ready for what comes next. RSVP ⤵️

Listen to @avilewis's full interview with @LukewSavage here: lukewsavage.com/p/socialism-is…

The cult of leadership is a failed model. That’s why our campaign made the deliberate choice to launch with bold solutions that address the everyday emergencies facing Canadians. Because this campaign isn’t about Avi — it’s about all of us. This is how we build power and win.

Friends in Whitehorse! Join neighbours and me on Thursday, February 26th, from 6-8pm at Lewis Hall at the Whitehorse United Church for a fun evening of community and conversation. RSVP 👉 avilewis.link/whitehorse

Something has shifted in this campaign. It's not just bigger crowds, great music, and tons of fun (though that too!)  It's a different kind of energy, lifting all of us. It's the experience of collective power, a shared vision, rising up.  It's hope. Join us! avilewis.link/join

Idle No More has transformed this country, putting Indigenous rights at the centre of the national conversation and bringing people into the streets as part of a common struggle for justice. It has opened eyes in profound ways, offering healing and hope that we can overcome injustice together. I’m deeply honoured to be endorsed by co-founders Sylvia McAdam and Sheelah McLean. To have earned their trust is truly humbling.  Join us: avilewis.link/join

There are only 7 days left to join the NDP so you can vote in the leadership race. Don’t take it from me. Take it from the thousands of people who’ve joined this movement: we're building something big here. For the many, not the money! Join by Jan 28 and help shape what comes next: avilewis.link/join

There's a lot of daylight between the Carney we heard at Davos – calling out the US’s exercise of naked power and shredding the so-called rules-based international order – and the Carney who has repeatedly capitulated to Trump since taking office. My conversation with @ryanjespersen this morning.

Je suis ravi du soutien de six leaders syndicaux, du public et du privé, jeunes et chevronné·es, uni·es par la justice. Ensemble, nous croyons que le NPD et les syndicats doivent garantir une vie digne à tou·tes les travailleurs et travailleuses. Rejoignez-nous : avilewis.link/adhesion

Thrilled for the support from 6 powerful labour leaders: private and public, veteran and young, all united in passion for justice. We share a belief: the NDP and trade unions must fight together for an ambitious vision guaranteeing a dignified life for ALL workers. Join us: avilewis.link/join

Line outside for Avi rally in downtown Van is genuinely a bit crazy

Hope to see you there! RSVP: avilewis.link/vancouver-town…

Canada's big six banks made $70 billion in profits last year on the backs of working people. So I went to Bay Street to ask bankers whether it’s time for a wealth tax. If you agree, become a member of the NDP and let’s fight for it together: avilewis.link/join

In case you missed it, here is my recent interview with @avilewis @CDN_Dimension canadiandimension.com/articles/view/…

Je suis honoré d’avoir le soutien de six leaders dans le domaine du climat. Les effets du changement climatique coûtent des vies, entraînent des coûts de plusieurs milliards de dollars et ne font que s'intensifier. Nous avons besoin d'un un plan d'urgence climatique. Un New Deal vert. Ces leaders savent que l’action climatique passe par la construction: réseau électrique vert, transports publics, thermopompes pour tous. Une économie qui réduit les émissions, respecte les droits autochtones et ne laisse personne de côté. Fier de compter ces héros parmi nous! avilewis.link/adhesion

I'm honoured to have the support of six amazing climate leaders from across the country and around the world.  Climate impacts are stealing lives, costing billions, and only getting more intense.  Our politics needs an injection of urgency: a climate emergency plan. A Green New Deal. These leaders know that climate action means building things: a new grid with renewables at scale, EV buses & rail, heat pumps for all. An economy that slashes emissions, respects Indigenous rights, and leaves no worker behind. Proud to have these heroes on board! Join us: avilewis.link/join

NDP leadership hopeful @avilewis wants to take some big swings. But can his optimism and belief in huge progressive change overcome Canadian cynicism? Today on Bubble Pop, we discussed all that and more (including photo evidence of his time with MuchMusic). Here's a sneak peek:

Winnipeg, thank you! From residents at Old Grace Co-op to labour leaders, faith communities, and a powerful night with supporters, this stop was about solutions, solidarity, and strength. Grateful for every conversation and for the momentum growing here. Onward. avilewis.link/join
