Leap Manifesto

In a stunning rebuff to the party establishment, delegates to the federal convention of the Canada鈥檚 social democratic New Democratic Party, meeting in Edmonton, Alberta April 8-10, voted to reject Thomas Mulcair as their leader. They voted to begin reorienting the party to become a leader in Canada鈥檚 climate justice movement.
Five hundred Toronto-area supporters crowded into a west-end school auditorium March 29 to support the Leap Manifesto, for a 鈥渏ustice-based鈥 energy transition to renewable economy.
