Avi Lewis likes neon-sign politics. That was the point of the Leap Manifesto he co-authored more than a decade ago in a bid to prod the NDP to the left. He didn’t propose steps. He wanted a leap.
“We’re challenging decades of political clichés. So we want to spend like drunken sailors,” he said then, in an interview at the 2016 NDP convention. “We need a shift in our sense of what’s politically possible.”
He’s Batshit Crazy.
