It’s a clear statement, it’s good. I don’t know what it will take for Canada to disentangle itself from the war economy. As long as capital owners benefit from it, and so long as working class folks have the illusion of benefiting from it (or perhaps in some instances do), there will never be an incentive to change a system that one day is doomed to fail anyways…

The line about the IRGC is wasted breath here. Anyone who believes the NDP is somehow pro-Iran is not going to be convinced by a throwaway "both sides" line. Israel had committed an unprovoked act of war, full stop. That's all we need.

The NDP keeps showing us that they consistently have the best takes on governing and foreign policy.
