Over a month ago, Avi Lewis became the leader of the federal NDP.

Managing editor Martin Lukacs and Spring Socialist Network organizer Deena Newaz debate how Lewis’ win raises new, interesting questions: how should the Canadian left relate to the party now? Can the NDP become a vehicle for mass socialist politics?

The discussion took place in early April and was hosted by professor, author, and activist David Camfield on his podcast Victor’s Children.
