Halifax, you're amazing. Nearly 200 of you came out to talk about our campaign and how we can build a gov that works for all of us, not just the wealthy few.

Thank you to all our incredible speakers for joining us; it was an honour to share the stage with each of you. I can’t wait to be back!

2/ No option, including public or worker ownership, should be off the table to protect these community-supporting jobs. Worker ownership saved this mill from closure in the 1990s, and it can help save our steel industry today.

Proud to march today with 50,000 from Quebec labour and community groups, as the CAQ gov escalates its attacks on the rights of unions, tenants, migrants, and Muslims and Jews alike.

People want real solutions to the everyday crisis of healthcare, housing, and the cost of getting by. On lâche pas!

Right card: A picture of Avi and Nimâ with a quote from Nimâ: "I love Avi's clarity, courage, and principled stands on Gaza, fossil fuels, and big bold solutions.

This is big.

Thrilling endorsement for @avilewis.ca from Quebec NDP co-president & movement legend Nimâ Machouf.

Nimâ was watching last night's debate closely, thinking about who can lead the party back in Quebec. Now she's made her choice.

C’est du lourd.

Un appui majeur pour @avilewis.ca de la part de la coprésidente du NPD du Québec et légende du mouvement Nimâ Machouf.

Nimâ a écouté attentivement le débat d’hier, en se demandant qui peut ramener le parti au Québec. Elle a fait son choix.
