#64: What Does Avi Lewis's Win Mean for Socialists?

What Does Avi Lewis's Win Mean for Socialists? . . The election of Avi Lewis as leader of the federal New Democratic Party is a small political earthquake in the Canadian state. Lewis is the first person from the left wing of the party to be elected leader, and he was opposed by most of the party establishment. Left candidates also took office on the party's executive. Right after Lewis's win was announced two provincial NDP leaders distanced themselves from him. Lewis's win has raised the morale of many people on the Left, with many hoping that major change is coming to the NDP. . On this episode, Martin Lukacs and Deena Newaz discuss how Lewis won, the significance of what's happened, how the NDP is positioned in relation to fighting the Carney government's agenda, and what socialists and other anti-capitalists should do now.
