Haha, Nenshi is such a loser and a liar.
Lewis never cheered for the defeat of the NDP.
Nenshi says he isn't even a member of the federal party anyway.
#cdnpoli #NDP2026
also hey, in a race that the media often treated as a three-horse race with Tony and Tanille tacked on as afterthoughts I’m super pleased Tanille came third (my top rank). she has great ideas and energy and if Lewis is smart he’ll bring her into the fold. #ndp2026
Kinew's advice to Lewis: to the leasership candidates "Bring them in" #ndp2026
Avi Lewis (@avilewis.ca) wins the leadership of the NDP on the first ballot. #cdnpoli #NDP #NDPldr #NDP2026
I'm loving that @avilewis 's acceptance speech is delegated, first, to the leaders of his team! Looks like, truly, a collaboration of leaders.
LIVE NOW: Avi Lewis wins NDP race. Tune into his speech.

@votetanille.bsky.social - you ran an incredible campaign. Kudos to you and your team!
#NDP2026
@avilewis wins NDP leadership on the first ballott!
"There is no contradiction between seeking power and ethical politics" ... Davies speaking directly to the Lewis campaign here. #ndp2026
Don Davies is repeating the same line, "the NDP was founded by workers, for workers" which tells me that they think that their strength is within labour ... which makes me wonder if they think democracy within labour is a alive as they hope it is? #ndp2026
There are a lot of party operatives with their heads hung low and talking #ndp2026
I joined the #NDP to support Avi, but ended up putting @votetanille.bsky.social at the top of my ballot.
I loved her priorities and her commitment to her values. The most authentic and relatable candidate by far.
Good luck Tanille! I hope your voice is loud in the new NDP! #NDP2026
(Avi is #2)
Tony has been asked why he chose the song "Jack's Dream" for the Campaign theme song. #ndp #ndp2026 #jacksdream
Screenshot of Tony from the 1 minute video where he explains why "Jack's Dream" is meaningful and appropriate for his Campaign theme song.
I was looking earlier today, @nolore.bsky.social was the only person on this platform live-skeeting #ndp2026 ... and in the month+ leadup, @tonymcquailndp.bsky.social was the only one on here using that hashtag.
This platform is a bit of a let down but at least some people on here are doing things
Jeremy Appel keeps leaning a little bit out of the screen...
What a crossover! Listening to @readtheorchard.org @nolore.bsky.social and @desmondcole.bsky.social live from #ndp2026
The NDP elected a new executive committee on Saturday. The results of the vote for the new leader will be announced tomorrow on Sunday. #NDP2026 #NDPconvention2026

One of the most moving moments in today's #NDP2026 convention was all 5 leadership candidates standing together to speak in support of motion for proportional representation.
There are rumours that there will be a walkout among delegates tomorrow from SK and AB if Lewis wins. This result though shows very clearly where the tendency lies, and if people do that, it will look petty and silly.
#ndp2026
Massive upset in the officer leadership at #ndp2026 -- the "continuity" slate was defeated by a last-minute slate that included Libby Davies. Only people in the room are allowed to vote on this and so it not only seals the Lewis victory, but it also shows that support goes deep.
Laura Walton from the OFL is giving a strong endorsement of this motion. "Labour believes in international solidarity ... it's something that we live and breate every day." #ndp2026
"Be it therefore resolved that Our new leader calls upon the Prime Minister to defy Trump's illegal oil embargo on Cuba."
Next up is an emergency motion calling on Carney to violate Trump #ndp2026
Delegate at the mic, who is Iranian, says he supports this motion but wants it to be clear that he wants regime change. It can't be done with war, he says. #ndp2026
Alex Silas from PSAC has moved the convention to their feet.
#ndp2026
Accountability for Minab Massacre BE IT RESOLVED that New Democrats condemn the illegal actions of the US government in Iran, and call out Prime Minister Mark Carney's troubling approach to the conflict and; BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the NDP call on the Government to: Issue a formal and unambiguous public condemnation of the attack on the elementary school in Minab, Iran Suspend all military aid and related assistance to the US and Israel in the context of the current conflict pending full and independent investigation Lay before the House of Commons a full accounting of Canada’s role in this incident Instruct the Foreign AƯairs Minister to conduct a formal compliance assessment of all current and pending arms transfers to the US and Israel work towards an immediate ceasefire
Alright, onto emergency motions. There are two. Here is one, condeming the attacks on Iran. #ndp2026
On day 2 of the NDP convention, each leadership candidate took to the stage for one last pitch to delegates. #ndp2026 #NDPleadership2026

Charming! They have paper ballots. #ndp2026
Big energy. Even more than for the leaders themselves. This is the kind of race that is a quiet struggle on the values that matters. It's very bureaucratic, and so cuts to the heart of the problems that delegates and leadership candidates have identified. #ndp2026
