This has nothing to do with defending NATO members. Carney was specifically asked if Canada would "participate in US military action in Iran."
That military action is an offensive and we can and should rule out joining that offensive, full stop
It's not cut, it's in the video. And it makes no difference. Carney was asked if we would "participate in US military action in Iran" which means the ongoing offensive action
He brings up defence as a non-sequitur to muddy the waters of a simple question: will we join the US offensive
He was asking if he would "participate in US military action in Iran." which means the ongoing offensive
Carney is perfectly capable of ruling out joining the offensive (which is overwhelmingly opposed by Canadians btw) while saying we will honour our defensive commitments
1/ PM Carney: you can and must categorically rule out participation in this illegal war.
Your unqualified support of Trump and Netanyahu’s war was bad enough. It’s unconscionable that you’re now considering putting Canadian forces in harm’s way.
In my latest for @truthout.org I ask the question that nearly no journalists in Canada are asking: why on earth would we pour tremendous resources into building up our military given crumbling social conditions?

every time I see Avi post I wanna shout WE ARE SO BACK and that's why he's getting my vote for leader of the NDP
His regretful little face as he puts the "rules-based international order" sign back in the shop window
Just admit you're Trump's dog already
Yes Canada's foreign policy has been captured by the US for decades, Carney is continuing it in contrast to his Davos speech
Regardless of whether Iran is an ally or not, supporting these attacks is complicity in a violation of international law and the murdering of civilians including schoolgirls
You mean the previous illegal and unsuccessful interventions by US/Israel that got us here? Yes, he is supporting more imperialism
He needs to stop willingly getting dog walked by Trump and Netanyahu
Elbows firmly on the floor as you get dog walked by your daddies Trump and Netanyahu
Carney is a warmongering fascist who celebrates the killing of children
Carney is a warmonger who is happy to cast aside international laws when it benefits his imperialist partners in Washington and Tel Aviv
This is a mean-spirited move by Carney, goes against our UN commitments, and is undoubtedly going to increase recidivism rates since libraries and education are one of the only lifelines prisoners have to a decent public life
Canada is in the Harper era again

OpenAI is a menace. Two recent stories make that clearer than ever.
One day you have Sam Altman denigrating humanity to defend AI. The next, WSJ reveals OpenAI could have alerted Canadian police of a potential mass shooter, but refused pressure from employees. That person went on to kill 8 people.

Toronto Sun level slop from @althiaraj.bsky.social
She outright lies several times (dealing with Trump, fossil fuels, winning back voters were indeed discussed)
She claims caucus members don't want to work with Avi, source: a dream she had? 2 of 7 MPs openly back him, none have said they wouldn't

The Tumbler Ridge shooter used Sam Altman’s OpenAI to discuss violence & mass killings.
The conversations were flagged & reviewed by employees who wanted to contact law enforcement.
The company refused.
The same company who blamed a teen’s suicide on “misuse of the platform” when his parents sue
More people need to raise awareness about this and the danger it poses
Great example of the way @avilewis.ca's public options for groceries, housing, internet, and banking would improve our lives beyond our wallets
It takes a huge mental and spiritual toll having to decide what to go without in our inflated and rigged free market system
Following deadly crackdowns in Iran, protest organizers in Toronto have called for a US military intervention.
Donya Ziaee and @smohyeddin.bsky.social argue that what Iran needs is international solidarity—not a far-right monarchist revival. breachmedia.ca/whats-going-...
After last night's solid debate performance and Tanille having donors in more ridings than both Heather and Rob, I'm convinced the media is wrong. It's Tanille, not Rob, who's competing with Heather for second place
(no shade, but I suspect Avi's lead is just too big at this point for them to win)
Hell ya Alex, Kootenays rise up!
To have a party leader speaking like this on the national stage would begin a renaissance of the @ndp.ca and the Canadian left in general
Great interview Luke Savage and @jacobinmag.bsky.social

“Canada, one of Cuba’s closest friends, has the means to lend our support.
But we can’t.
Carney’s speech was brilliant because it was clear and accurate. He named the exact bind that Canada finds itself in, and argues that we have to resist it.
Except, he himself cannot resist it.” #cdnpoli
Yes, there are democratic debates among New Democrats - the clue is in the name!
In a vast country with many regions and interests, it’s the job of the federal NDP to offer an inspiring national vision that unites us as a party of the 99%.
That’s how we build the biggest tent and win.
Incredibly based

"A tax plan for the 99%" in bold text above a flag reading "LEWIS for leader" on a yellow background.
There are fountains of wealth being generated in this country. But that wealth isn't trickling down to working people. It’s all stuck at the top.
Our 'Tax Plan for the 99%' takes on the corporate hoarding class – to redistribute wealth and raise the floor for all of us.

He's literally buying fighter jets from the US and partnering with Israel on the AI technology they're targeting Palestinians with.
Avi Lewis raised the most money up to the end of 2025, suggesting that he is currently the front runner to be the next leader of the NDP. www.thewrit.ca/p/avi-lewis-...
