OTTAWA—Avi Lewis concluded nearly four decades ago that the NDP had lost its way.
He was a 20-year-old roadie on the Ontario New Democratic Party’s 1987 election campaign, helping leader Bob Rae in an uphill fight to take credit for the NDP’s policy wins under a minority Liberal government.
It didn’t work. Premier David Peterson got his majority and the NDP lost six seats.
The media are still trying to breathe life into the commies Carney must want it so.
Q: You don't have a seat in parliament… will you be doing what Poilievre did, which is persuading one of your caucus to gently step aside?
Avi Lewis: There is no way I'm asking one of these spectacular people to step aside. Not in a million years. pic.twitter.com/NiJD5z2TXA
