“Perhaps these sorts of left-wing populist ideas have had trouble succeeding in Canadian politics because they’ve lacked a passionate and articulate advocate.

That may have just changed.”

Avi Lewis may be onto something

Despite what his detractors in the western provinces say, Avi Lewis might be laying out a practical path for the NDP's future.

Interesting to hear “left-wing populist” being bandied about already to describe sensible person-first policies that might be popular.

If these things are “populist” is the opposite something like “business-first”? or maybe just “capitalist”?

People are what matter - every person matters - and it’s refreshing to hear a leader be clear about that.
