NDP leader Avi Lewis has renewed his call for the federal government to nationalize Stelco in the face of the company laying off 500 unionized workers from its Hamilton plant.

As an interim leadership team takes over, the party looks for answers.

So it's been called, 100 years since conservatives have been the majority in BC. A record that should have kept going for at least two more years but instead Eby tried for a power grab and shit the bed so bad that he isn't even leader any more.

I was unhappy living in a conservative riding but at least they didn't have control, I wonder how long before a bigger schemer will wrestle control from Dorkson, he isn't exactly charismatic just less of a shit than Eby.

Now we are all going to be suffering under the control of party that will give very little to help people and put businesses first, which is going to be bad for everyone including businesses in the long run.

Ottawa’s push to keep the economy moving is setting up a showdown with organized labour

This is private equity, this is what it does.

Buy up businesses, run them into the ground, and rip them apart for short-term profit.

The developers at BioWare know how to run the studio. They know how to make the games we all love. They should be given the first opportunity - and the federal support - to buy it and run it themselves.

And if we want to avoid the Mass Effect effect in Canada, we should be keeping private equity out, not welcoming it in.

Workers at Stellantis auto plants in Windsor, Toronto, and Brampton have voted overwhelmingly to go on strike, producing a 97% “yes” vote. Currently, bargaining between Unifor which represents the workers, and the auto giant Stellantis are at an impasse.

Canadians want to build big things, but you can’t build those things without steel.

To save the Canadian steel industry and take back control of our economy, Canada must nationalize Stelco.

The provincial NDP is blaming the federal government and both the provincial Liberals and PCs for failing the people of Newfoundland and Labrador on pharmacare.

Newfoundland and Labrador has yet to sign on to the national pharmacare program, something Premier Tony Wakeham says the province is willing to do.

Leader Jim Dinn believes there wasn’t an appetite for the province to sign-on, and it “missed the boat.”

“I think it gave the federal government the opportunity, or the reason to say ‘well, you know, maybe there’s not enough pickup so this is a program we can cancel.'”

Dinn told VOCM Open Line with Brian Callahan that the responses he’s heard to date from the premier and minister of health have been “tepid.”

“I put the blame on them for this, is that what the plan is going forward? In terms of Yvonne (Earle of the Council of Canadians) she made it very clear…people are not taking their medication. It’s having repercussions on their health…and increased costs to the health care system.”

The National Post has suggested violence is the way “to deal” with the NDP leader for his outspoken criticism of Israel
