Prime Minister Carney says the war in Iran was "worth it". I want to know who he thinks it was worth it for.

The Liberals have used their newly acquired majority to push through major changes to Canada’s laws at the last minute and shut down debate on legislation with major implications for the lives of all Canadians. This is not normal. This is what happens when a government thinks it can act with impunity.

When people can’t afford the necessities of a dignified life, it's the government's job to step up and actually govern.

My position is clear: I am unequivocally opposed to any new fossil fuel development — including LNG. Industry and governments have spent years selling the lie that natural gas is a “bridge to the future.” The bridge is burning. We must have the courage to say this to every government, of any stripe: if you’re building new pipelines or fossil infrastructure, this shall not pass.

Today, the NDP is calling on the Carney government to implement a national ban on surveillance pricing - before it becomes a predatory new normal in Canadian life. Canadians are already struggling with the untenable cost of living. Now, retailers are teaming up with Big Tech to squeeze people even more. It’s time to stop the practice dead in its tracks.

Liberal and Conservative governments in Ottawa have let corporate grocers get away with ripping off Canadians for far too long. Billions in profits are made by the Big 3 Grocers every year, while too many working-class people wonder how they’ll be able to afford their next meal. When markets fail, it’s the government’s job to step in and actually provide alternatives to people. No more waiting for the market to fix itself. Canada needs a public option for grocery stores.

This genocide is changing history. Longstanding narratives are being laid to rest, buried in the rubble of Gaza. ⛔️Israel guarantees Jewish safety 🙅🏻♂️The IDF is "the most moral army in the world" 🚫Canada is an honest broker My thoughts from a recent JewishFaculty.ca event:

We need to make our country safe. But we don’t build a safer country with more military spending that goes to enriching US arms companies. We build it with economic sovereignty, strong public healthcare, affordable housing, and a country where we take care of each other.

Today, NDP delegates voted overwhelmingly in favour of a resolution calling on the federal government to close the loophole that has allowed Canadian-made weapons to be used in war crimes and human rights abuses abroad — as Jenny Kwan’s Bill C-233 called for. I was proud to speak in favour of the resolution.

Thanks CBC Vancouver for showing a diversity of Jewish perspectives on Israel-Palestine. Reminder: Zionist organizations that claim to speak for all Jews...don't. And spraying accusations of antisemitism as indiscriminately as Israel drops bombs is not making anyone safer.

Mark Carney is throwing money at the war machine; we're fighting for a Canadian Green New Deal. Who's going to turn down cheaper bills for heat, AC, and their commute in favour of sucking up to weapons contractors? Become an NDP member to join our movement, and let's fund our future! ⤵️

All Canadians are better off when we have a clear alternative to the Liberal-Conservative alliance in parliament.
