      >Lewis said his campaign has gained momentum because „we’ve just been indulging in a little straight talk.“

      >He said his positions have a „moral clarity“ and that he’s not „trying to find the magic words that won’t offend anybody, but actually saying such things that need saying.“

      >One of those most important things, Lewis said, is clearly stating „the genocide in Gaza is a horror that has ripped open this world.“

      Man, if the NDP could only find a way to love Canada as much as they love Gaza maybe the party wouldn’t be in such a sad state.

      „You’ve asked a fundamental hypothetical, in a conflict that can spread very broadly, today’s events and recent events, point to that. So, one can never categorically rule out participation. We will stand by our allies. But it makes sense. There’s a­­­ distinction between the offensive actions that were taken and are being taken by the United States and Israel, that were taken by them without consultation with Canada, with other, with other allies. And we’re not party to those actions. But we will always defend Canadians. We will always stand by and defend our allies when called upon.“

      Is a well thought out response that says we will not fight in Iran unless it spreads and essentially warrants a full NATO intervention. Why are people up in arms, it’s effectively Chretiens view of Iraq vs Afghanistan . He also pulled troops out of the region.

      That is a little disappointing, to see him say he wouldn’t look to run in any of the coming by-elections, as McPherson is the only one who already has a seat and I do believe a party leader should at least try to be in the House of Commons. I guess he doesn’t have strong ties to the Quebec riding(s?) or the Toronto ridings where by-elections are pending, but still…I guess that would mean either Don Davies staying on as House Leader or maybe McPherson, if they can solidify that support. Assuming Lewis wins, that is.

      Yah let’s take hostile stance towards the world’s most powerfull military and some one we share the world’s largest boarder with brilliant geopolitics from the NDP. Carney is pretty savy with his dealings with this that’s a fact

      Grabs NDP head, turns it to Canada. „Housing, healthcare, education, infrastructure Focus here!. Not there“

      Some NDP MPs will sit as independents if he wins. It’s been talked about in political circles. This will be the end of the party.

      I have already railed against some of the idiocy from Lewis on Iran, and also the old left aligned long put out to pasture former parliamentarian Lloyd Axeworthy who has been damned determined to be relevant again for some unknown reason.

      These self appointed guardians of Canada’s international ethics cannot be trusted to manage the outhouse at my neighbour’s cottage. They seem to be that unworldly.

      I read the first opinion piece put out by each as a courtesy hoping it would have some balance and understanding of international political nuances. Stupid me.

      The NDP lost when they stopped being the party of the working people and started to become the party of woke culture

      I am a HUGE NDP supporter.

      I have donated and volunteered months of my time in every election since turning 18

      If he wins leadership, the party has been high jacked, and I’m done.

      I don’t really care what he says. I only got to his name in the title, and was pissed off at his existence

      I keep seeing this guy on Instagram crying about the Islamic Republic being attacked. And I walk around in North Van and see every single Iranian celebrating.

      Carney has turned out to be such a disappointment. So much for standing up to the Americans

      Apparently, the NDP no longer has anything to offer domestically, so they are focusing on completely irrelevant issues abroad. Fantastic!
