Liberals’ "strict new timelines" are a recipe for systemic failure. Pushing people fleeing trauma into rushed legal processes doesn't create efficiency—it creates injustice. We need a system built on due process, not arbitrary deadlines that set people up to fail. panow.com/2026/04/15/i...

Today I proposed banning "surveillance pricing" — a creepy practice where corporations weaponize your personal data to rip you off. Deeply disappointed the motion was rejected. Canadians are already being crushed by sky-high costs. They deserve relief, not corporate exploitation.

(1/) I am so proud and excited to have an @ndp.ca leader in @avilewis.ca who is movement-driven, worker-centred, and human rights-focused. www.winnipegfreepress.com/our-communit...

I am still basking in the excitement from our 2026 NDP Convention. I am so proud to stand by Avi Lewis, our newly elected strong and progressive leader, to fight for the 99%. The NDP’s future is bright, and we’re just getting started.

On Yom HaShoah, we pause to remember the six million Jewish people who were murdered in the Holocaust. I also commemorate the survivors, including my late grandmother, Gina Gazan, and my father, Albert Gazan. (1/2)

Today, the NDP is calling on the Carney government to implement a national ban on surveillance pricing - before it becomes a predatory new normal in Canadian life. Canadians are already being squeezed by the untenable cost of living. It’s time to stop the practice dead in its tracks.

(1/) Grocery giants and other corporations have teamed up with big tech to raise profits through surveillance pricing. They're using personalized data to set individualized higher prices based on where you live, what you search online and how often you shop.

Today marks the 150th year of the Indian Act as an archaic tool of colonialism unilaterally ruling over Indigenous people across this country.

Spending my birthday weekend fighting off fascists and bigots. It reminds me of a teaching from my father. My father said “aggression is a sign of weakness. Now kindness that is powerful. What can you do in the face of kindness?” (1/4)

Today I joined Indigenous women’s organizations condemning the Liberal government's appalling $7 billion cuts to Indigenous Services Canada and Crown-Indigenous Relations, two ministries that are already grossly underfunded. (🧵 1/5)

“We are seeing more evidence every day that Mark Carney is a conservative, and that there are now two conservative parties in the House of Commons.” Read my full statement on MP Gladu’s floor crossing here: www.ndp.ca/news/ndp-sta...

(1/) Prime Minister Carney’s silence while Trump openly threatens genocide against millions of people is abhorrent. Real leadership isn’t complicity and cowardice, it means speaking out against Trump’s horrific threats, which channel the rhetoric of fascist dictatorships.

I’d like to wish a very blessed and peaceful Easter to folks across Winnipeg Centre and beyond. I wish everyone a safe and enjoyable long weekend.

Today is Refugee Rights Day, a commemoration of the Supreme Court of Canada’s 1985 ruling that the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms protects the fundamental rights of refugees. (1/4)

This evening, Jewish communities across the country will join in observing Passover. I wish the Jewish community across Winnipeg Centre and beyond a Chag Pesach!

(1/2) I am disgusted by the conduct of Prime Minister Carney and Premier Doug Ford, who laughed at and mocked the words of Grassy Narrows First Nations members.

On National Indigenous Languages Day, I lift up the numerous Indigenous languages spoken across Turtle Island. We must uphold the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's Calls to Action to protect the language rights of Indigenous peoples in Canada.

So sad to hear the news about the passing of Stephen Lewis. He was a trailblazer, a human rights activist, and an unapologetic democratic socialist who spent his whole life trying to build a better world for all.

On Trans Day of Visibility, we celebrate the lived experiences and invaluable contributions of trans people across Canada and beyond. Visibility is powerful, but trans people need more than visibility – they need their human rights upheld and respected. (1/6)

The future is bright. We have a movement to build🧡

@leahgazan.bsky.social is one of the few federal NDP parliamentarians left standing. She believes the party needs to embrace "unapologetic socialism" in order to rebuild. I spoke with Gazan for our latest @breachmedia.ca podcast breachmedia.ca/this-ndp-mp-...

Looking forward to joining all the coolest people in Winnipeg Centre tomorrow night! Can’t wait to see you there. RSVP: act.lewisforleader.ca/winnipeg-all...

Thank you so much to the Manitoba Teacher’s Society for endorsing my Bill C-247 to repeal Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code and uphold workers’ right to strike and bargain collectively.

We can never let ourselves become complicit in violations of international law, whether committed in Palestine, Iran, Lebanon, Cuba or Venezuela. More than ever we need to mobilize our anti-war movement and demand an end to human rights abuses across the world. www.leahgazan.ca/mp_leah_gaza...

Even on a dreary week in March, Winnipeg Centre is still packed with action! I was so happy to connect with constituents in Weston, sharing coffee with parents at Weston School and visiting Blake Gardens Resource Centre during their community lunch.

It is with deep sadness that I learnt about the accident at the LaGuardia airport, and the two pilots whose lives were lost in this tragedy. (1/3)

Two-Spirit Celebration and Awareness Day happens annually on March 20, offering us time to honour the diverse identities of two-spirit people, and reflect on the important contributions they have, and will continue to make in our communities.

Eid Mubarak to all those observing Eid Al-Fitr in Winnipeg Centre and beyond! I am sending my love, solidarity and celebration to you and your loved ones today.

Bill C-9 is yet another disturbing attack on Charter-protected rights in Canada, criminalizing protest, suppressing dissent and expanding police powers. Sign my petition telling MPs in the House of Commons to vote down Bill C-9: ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

I am deeply grateful for my decision to endorse Avi Lewis. He has reminded us that our power comes from what we already hold within our movement. Thank you to Avi and his incredible team for choosing integrity, for lifting people up, and for leading with positivity when it matters most.

Here’s a thought… With everything that is going on in the world, let’s challenge ourselves to be a little more kind, a little more gentle, a little more loving, a little less judgmental, and a lot more giving. You know, we do have the power to change the world together.

Thank you Gina McKay and CUPE Manitoba for endorsing my Bill C-247 to repeal Section 107 and protect workers’ right to strike. Manitoban workers bear a long legacy of labour struggles, helping pave the way for our constitutional right to strike being recognized in Canada.

It is simply insulting to workers that after invoking Section 107 and shutting down flight attendants’ strike against unpaid labour, Carney’s Liberal government continues to support airlines’ cover up of unpaid work. www.readthemaple.com/government-d...

This Spring, MPs will debate my #BillC247 to repeal Section 107 and protect the right to strike. This is our chance to tell the Liberal government: enough with the unconstitutional strike breaking. Click here to tell your MP to vote YES to Bill C-247👇 leahgazan.ca/repeal_secti...

When it comes to upholding international law, it seems like Prime Minister Carney can’t make up his mind. (1/2)

Through the Liberals’ repeated use of Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code, they are violating the Charter-protected right to strike and attacking workers’ ability to fight for a liveable wage.

Voting has begun and I was excited to cast my ballot. Avi Lewis and his team have built something powerful. They have raised a record amount in donations, brought hundreds of people together at events, and put forward a bold progressive vision that leaves no one behind and brings everyone along.

Today is International Women’s Day - a time to celebrate all the remarkable advancements made by women and gender-diverse people across the world. Today, we recommit to the ongoing fight for gender equality and human rights for all women and gender-diverse people in Canada and across the globe.

I was proud to recently table a petition to adopt a National Food Assistance Program, something increasingly vital, especially for low income people, people with disabilities, seniors and adults without children.

Over February's #ILovetoRead Month, I was thinking about how stories teach us to share humanity, empathy and compassion. At a time when humanity is being stripped away from so many, stories are a powerful tool of resistance. This is one of the many reasons why I love to read.

Alongside tax breaks to corporate landlords and private jet owners, Carney’s Liberals have repeatedly violated the constitutionally-protected right to strike when workers stood up for liveable wages and safe working conditions.

If Carney is so worried about human rights, why is he making deals with India, China, and Qatar? Trump is violating his very own Constitution in his current actions against Iran. Canada was a peace keeping nation. Now we’re trying to egg on a third world war.
