I see media and Alberta NDP people criticizing Avi Lewis for his advocacy of the Leap Manifesto a decade ago.

The 2015 Leap Manifesto called for :
*A shift to a "100% clean energy economy" by 2050.
*An end to gov subsidies to the fossil fuel industry
*Support for community-owned clean energy projects
*A universal program for retrofitting, prioritizing low income communities
*Re-training for workers in carbon-intensive industries
*Localization of agriculture infrastructure
*A moratorium on international trade deals that infringe upon democratic rights
*A debate on universal basic income
*An end to corporate funding of political campaigns and examination of voting reform.

Scary stuff, huh. #NDP #NDPleadership

@AlisonCreekside Is the Leap Scenario related to #GiantLeap?
@DoomsdaysCW I don't know #GiantLeap. Can you link me something? Here's the Leap Manifesto from a decade ago:

The Leap Manifesto
@AlisonCreekside The Leap Manifesto certainly seems to be inspired by Giant Leap. Or it could be a nice coincidence.
@DoomsdaysCW Thanks! The Leap Manifesto was spear-headed by Naomi Klein in 2015 and is Canada-centric. When/where did Giant Leap originate?
@AlisonCreekside Hmmm. It seems that Naomi Klein must have inspired Giant Leap Scenario, as it wasn't created until 2022! Cool!
