Lol what an absolute hack job by Mulcair, clearly edited last-minute to tack on some shallow condolences to Avi for the loss of his father.

Also, I wish Lewis wanted to nationalize stuff, but it's not what his policies actually are. The CBC was also trying to frame his call for public options "nationalization", so I guess even the public fuckin' broadcaster is doing red scare stuff around policies not unlike the one that allows their own network to exist

I'm kind of hoping Lewis will start taking a more unapologetic position regarding nationalization. If they're going to do the whole red scare thing anyways, why not just embrace it. I don't think it even hits with young people the same way it does with boomers. People struggling under capitalism, who can barely make ends meet, and have to live with roommates because they can't even afford a place of their own, aren't so enamoured with the current system as not to seriously consider alternatives.
