A beautiful tribute from the foundation that bears his name. Stephen Lewis was a giant in our party who had a profound impact around the world. My thoughts are with Avi, the whole Lewis family, and everyone feeling this loss.

En parlant avec des membres partout au pays, une chose est claire : notre priorité, c’est d’améliorer la vie des gens au quotidien. C’est ça, la mission. C’est pourquoi il est essentiel de faire grandir notre voix, d’élargir notre caucus et d’être la voix du changement pour la population.

We asked New Democrats to describe Heather in one word: Tenacious. Principled. Reformer. Fierce. Fighter. But one word keeps coming up again and again: Builder.

We need electoral reform. When the current system distorts results, it shuts people out. It reduces accountability, discourages working together to help Canadians, and rewards division. Proportional representation would fix all that.

Grateful for the support of Ray Funk and Don Cody. Ray took Prince Albert's values and a principled stand for peace to Parliament and beyond. Don served as MLA, cabinet minister, and Mayor. He showed you never have to stop showing up for your community.

Pat est la femme ayant siégé le plus longtemps comme députée provinciale dans l’histoire de la Saskatchewan. Après la politique, elle est allée en Afghanistan pour aider des femmes à prendre leur place, puis à les mettre en sécurité. Son appui compte énormément pour moi.

Pat is the longest-serving woman MLA in Saskatchewan's history. After provincial politics, she went to Afghanistan to help women participate in public life, then fought to get them out of the country to safety. Pat Atkinson's support means so much.

Le premier ministre Lorne Calvert a consacré sa vie au service de la population de la Saskatchewan. Il n’a jamais oublié pour qui il se bat. Comme lui, David a servi avec une bienveillance et une discrétion qui rappellent pourquoi notre parti existe. Honorée de pouvoir compter sur leur appui.
