Pipelines, Woke Politics, and the Collapse of the NDP

André Proulx joins Stephen LeDrew on Three Minutes for a blunt conversation about the state of the NDP, its leadership race, and whether the party still represents working Canadians.A longtime New Democrat and producer of the show, Proulx argues that the modern NDP has abandoned the working class in favour of ideological checklists, culture-war politics, and positions that actively oppose jobs in resource development and infrastructure. The discussion takes aim at recent comments from NDP figures opposing pipelines, the party’s leadership criteria, and its growing disconnect from union members and blue-collar voters.Stephen LeDrew and André Proulx also explore where labour voters may go next, whether the NDP can recover, and what this shift means for Canadian politics more broadly.This is a conversation you won’t hear in the legacy media - and exactly why independent shows like Three Minutes matter.
