Victoria, you showed up tonight!

I’ll be at the #yyj meet up tonight to feel what I haven’t felt in many years about the NDP: hope!

Great things happen when Seans and Shawns unite

This Sunday! Join me, Gabor Maté, Bill McKibben, Anjali Appadurai, Libby Davies, El Jones, Judy Rebick, Nas Yadollahi, and other guests for an All Day Outreach Party. Together, we’ll invite thousands of new members into the NDP before the Jan 28 deadline. RSVP: https://avilewis.link/january-11

Je suis honoré d’avoir le soutien de Gary Burrill, l'ancien chef du NPD de la Nouvelle-Écosse et défenseur de la justice économique, du contrôle des loyers et du logement. Gary dirige avec une clarté morale, sans se soucier des convenances politiques. Rejoignez-nous : https://choisisavi.ca/adhesion

Honoured to have the support of Gary Burrill—the beloved former Nova Scotia NDP leader and fierce champion for economic justice, rent control, and housing. Gary leads with moral clarity, not political convenience. Grateful for his trust. Join us: https://avilewis.link/join

January is our last chance to sign up new members & power a renewed NDP. I’m hitting the road for town halls across the country to meet, debate, organize – maybe even sing & dance – & grow the joyful, people-powered movement we need to win. Join us: https://act.lewisforleader.ca/all-out-for-avi

Je suis fier de pouvoir compter sur le soutien de @seanorr.bsky.social et @shawnmenard.bsky.social, deux conseillers municipaux qui connaissent bien les situations d'urgence auxquelles les gens sont confrontés au quotidien.

Proud to have the support of @seanorr.bsky.social and @shawnmenard.bsky.social – city councillors who know the everyday emergency people are living through.

Les États-Unis ont attaqué un pays, enlevé son chef d'État et s'emparent de son pétrole. Trump a invoqué la doctrine Monroe. C'est le moment pour le Canada de se tenir debout : condamner cet acte d'impérialisme. Rejeter l'impunité et la politique de la force brute.

The US has attacked a country, kidnapped its head of state, and is seizing its oil. Trump has invoked the Monroe Doctrine. This is a moment for Canada to stand up: condemn this act of imperialism. Reject impunity and the politics of brute force.

While working people get crushed by the cost of everything, we know where the money is—it’s stuck at the top. We need a government with the courage to go and get some of it for all of us. A wealth tax of 1% on the 1% could raise as much as $40B a year. www.ctvnews.ca/canada/artic...

Happy New Year! It's invisible to casual observers and the mainstream media, but something is stirring in this NDP leadership race: hope. It's a fragile thing, and the times we're living in aren't giving us much reason. But a better future is possible - and it's ours if we build it together.

Start 2026 with this incredible history lesson from the great @mollycrabapple.bsky.social. She shows how the political tradition of @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social is infused with 120 years of working class Jewish socialism in NYC. We stand on the shoulders of garment workers! dub.sh/SDhLBiP

“We need a win — and we won’t get it if we don’t believe we can.” As the year ends, here's the wonderful @naomiaklein.bsky.social on what she's looking forward to in 2026 – and why it can be better than the year we’re leaving behind. Join us: lewisforleader.ca youtube.com/shorts/nSEVC...

Pouvez-vous faire un don de 5 $, 10 $, 25 $ ou plus avant la fin de l’année? Quand beaucoup de gens se mobilisent et donnent ce qu’ils peuvent, même un petit don peut faire une énorme différence. #NPD https://avilewis.link/donnez

Can you donate $5, $10, $25 or more before the end of the year? When a large number of people get together and do what they can, even a small donation can make a huge difference. #cdnpoli #NDP https://avilewis.link/give

Next stop on the “All Out for Avi!” tour — Nanaimo! Join us on Jan 8th for a town hall to discuss big ideas that could drive the NDP forward – like a Green New Deal, head-to-toe health care, and public options to stop price gouging. Plus, live music from local artists! RSVP: avilewis.link/nanaimo

There’s only 30 days left to become a member of the NDP so you can vote for @avilewis.ca in the leadership race. Join today: avilewis.link/join #cdnpoli #NDP

Less than a couple of hours to go! I hope you’ll join us: act.lewisforleader.ca/outreach-party

When times are hard, elites reach for the same trick. They use racism and fear to divide us — keeping us punching down so we don’t look up. But we know our fates are intertwined, and that’s where our power lies. Join us in building a government for the many: lewisforleader.ca

Hey Victoria! Mark your calendars! I’m heading your way on January 6 for the first stop of the All Out for Avi tour. Join me and local musicians for some good fun and conversation about a vision for an NDP that works for our future. RSVP: https://avilewis.link/victoria #cdnpoli #bcpoli #NDP

Bursting with pride for my brilliant sister Jenny Lewis of Lewis Kay Casting. She watched thousands upon thousands of auditions in search of the stars of Heated Rivalry.  I know there are many many people who are extremely glad she did. 😂

A holiday goal to get behind! Let's all step up and make sure Tony stays in the race. I just donated. You should too!

Year-end news to celebrate! The video game sector is sorely in need of more unionization: work is precarious, conditions are rough and AI is an existential threat in this sector. Congrats @cwacanada1.bsky.social and the groundbreaking workers in Halifax. Level unlocked. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Blown away by the response so far! If you haven’t yet, there’s still time to RSVP for our National Outreach call tomorrow👇🏻 Hope to see you there! act.lewisforleader.ca/outreach-party

Sunshine Coast, we’re coming your way! On Jan 3rd, join me and our special musical guests in Roberts Creek for an afternoon of good tunes, great company, and to hear our campaign’s vision for a revitalized NDP that delivers from coast to coast to coast 💪🏻 RSVP: avilewis.link/hoot-n-avi

This holiday season, join me & @naomiaklein.bsky.social for a different kind of family gathering: a coast-to-coast gathering of our extended democratic socialist family! On Dec 29, we’ll come together to reflect, strategize, and grow our movement. RSVP here: act.lewisforleader.ca/outreach-party

Who's gonna look back at 2025 and wistfully tell their family about Carney building another pipeline? That's not the kind of history any of us want to repeat. That's why we're proposing a Green New Deal: solutions to make life affordable and keep our world livable. youtu.be/A5XjLUxauyk?...

It’s been a year since the Liberals used Section 107 to squash the CUPW strike, and postal workers are still waiting for a fair deal. I stopped by the commemoration rally in Vancouver today, one of many nationwide. When workers are under attack, there’s only one thing to do - stand up, strike back!

This Yglesias piece in the NYT is horrifically bad. Almost every "fact" it cites is provably false. At best it is cocktail party banter from a pundit who knows nothing of energy. At worst, it was cut/paste from oil industry talking points. So, a rebuttal: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/18/o...

Joel, Jen, and Cheri know how to win tough elections. And they used their time in office to lead important fights — from winning a public inquiry into Ottawa’s light rails and defending family caregivers, to advancing LGBTQ rights, pay equity, living wages, and reproductive rights.

Joel, Jen et Cheri savent comment remporter des élections difficiles. Lors de leurs mandats respectifs, ils ont mené des combats importants : lancé une enquête publique sur le train léger d'Ottawa, défendu les proches aidants, avancé les droits des personnes LGBTQ et lutté pour des salaires décents.

Hey Vancouver! Tomorrow, join @avilewis.ca and fellow supporters for our Winter Fundraiser. Our grassroots campaign depends on your support. Stop by for some warm drinks, good company, and to help us build an NDP that fights for all of us. RSVP: avilewis.link/van-fundraiser

Vancouver friends! Join us tomorrow for our Winter Fundraiser, 3:15pm-6pm at Chill X Studio in Mount Pleasant. RSVP: avilewis.link/van-fundraiser #vanpoli #ndp

Mark Carney a notre côte ouest dans sa mire, avec un projet visant à creuser la Baie Burrard pour permettre aux pétroliers de transporter encore plus de pétrole brut. Il est temps qu'un leader fédéral du NPD dise non aux grandes pétrolières. Rejoignez-nous : choisisavi.ca youtu.be/ff5V5dS6c4U?...

Mark Carney has put a target on BC’s coast—with a plan to dig up Burrard Inlet so tankers can carry even more crude through these waters. It’s time for a federal NDP leader who will say “no” to Big Oil—and fight to protect the places we love. Join us: lewisforleader.ca youtu.be/jrh2xJV0UEU?...

This International Migrants Day, join me and @mhenaway.bsky.social for a critical conversation on Bill C-12’s implications for the safety of migrants and refugees, the work being done to fight back, and how we can build a rights-based alternative together. RSVP: avilewis.link/DMR

Canada's big banks gave their traders and investment bankers a 15% raise this year. $27.3 billion in "performance-based compensation". Whaaat? And why? Because tariff turmoil was awesome for Big Banks this year. They're partying.  We're struggling.  You're right to be furious.

Deeply honoured to have the support of NDP icons @libbydavies.bsky.social and @svendrobinson.bsky.social.  Inside and outside parliament, they’ve been trailblazing champions for social justice, from housing and harm reduction to LGBTQ rights and Palestinian liberation.

Je suis honoré de bénéficier de l’appui de @libbydavies.bsky.social et @svendrobinson.bsky.social. Au Parlement comme en dehors, ces deux figures ont été pionnières dans la lutte pour la justice sociale, qu'il s'agisse du logement, des droits des LGBTQ ou de la libération de la Palestine.

Carney is throwing money at the war machine; we're fighting for a Canadian Green New Deal. Who's going to turn down cheaper bills for heat, AC, & their commute in favour of sucking up to weapons contractors? Join the NDP, & let's fund our future! avilewis.link/join www.youtube.com/watch?v=-pFV...

Absolutely shameful, also absolutely predictable. Israel acts with violence and impunity towards Canadian MPs? The Carney government should impose immediate diplomatic & economic consequences. This appalling treatment cannot be met by mushy words that ultimately amount to capitulation. dub.sh/wb

Our healthcare system is in crisis. Decades of Liberal and Conservative policies have starved the system and let privatization creep in though every door. Today, I’m releasing our plan to take back public healthcare – and finish the job Tommy Douglas started. Join us → https://lewisforleader.ca

Notre système de santé est en crise. Des décennies de politiques libérales et conservatrices ont privé le système de financement et laissé la privatisation s'immiscer partout. Aujourd'hui, je dévoile notre plan pour reprendre le contrôle des soins de santé publics. https://choisisavi.ca

An afternoon in Parkdale with @avilewis.ca and community members, listening to cost-of-living concerns and discussing practical public alternatives to reduce household costs 📉 and improve everyday life. Time well spent!

Are you a young person who wants to help get @avilewis.ca elected as the next leader of the NDP? Join us this Thursday, Dec 18th to get onboarded to the National Youth Team and learn how you can organize with us on campus, on social media, or simply by signing up your friends! avilewis.link/NYTO

Today marks 10 years since the release of the Final Report of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, an invaluable record of the crimes and injustices committed through the residential school system.

Thanks @climategirl.bsky.social for tagging along with us yesterday as our team knocked on doors in Toronto's Parkdale neighbourhood (and for that great slogan you coined on the spot!) www.youtube.com/shorts/_oqJJ...
