The back says: "In the current federal political landscape, Avi Lewis embodies the possibility of an NDP that once again spearheads social transformation, acts as a bulwark against the far right, and is a respectful partner for Quebec. For a common anti-imperialist, environmentalist, and solidarity frontβto strengthen the hand of those who are fighting everywhere, in Quebec and across CanadaβI support Avi Lewis."
Amir Khadir is a hero of the QuΓ©bec left, one of the founders of QuΓ©bec solidaire and someone I have admired since our days in the alter-globalization movement.
Canadaβs NDP needs a deep and respectful relationship with the left in QuΓ©bec. Amirβs support is a vital part of building that bridge.

Baseball cards against a sky background. The first says: Dan Mangan, musician, endorses Avi Lewis for NDP leader. The second has a quote: "Iβm supporting Avi because heβs unabashedly outspoken and educated about climate change, affordability and fascism. The left apologizes too often for its ethos in hopes of appearing more centrist. If Mamdaniβs campaign can teach us anything, itβs that strong, well-spoken progressive leaders who can hold power to account in an unscripted manner are magnetic."
Truer words Dan! Your support is precious to me. Like so many of your fans, I'm grateful for all the poignant beauty and principled truth in your music. We're building a movement with equal parts moral clarity, grassroots power, and collective joy. You've been writing the soundtrack for years.

Jill made history as the first Black, queer MPP in Ontario, and sheβs fought relentlessly for affordable housing, health care, the arts, and gender & racial justice.
She is a principled, courageous leader who knows how move a room β and a movement. I'm delighted to have her support.

Mark Carney Knows the Old World Is Dying. But His New World Isnβt Good Enough.

Canadian PM offered a radical analysis of the collapse of the liberal world order. His response to that collapse is unacceptably conservative.
