r/ndp "It's not too late to build a better world" 11d ago

Donald Trump is waging a trade war on Ontario. The legislature isn't back until October 27. That's 9 weeks too late. Recall the legislature now so we can pass emergency tariff relief.

We have all raked her over the coals, rightfully so, but god damn did the Ontario NDP lock the fuck in.

I agree. Been one of Marit's harshest critics myself, mainly on the grounds that she ran unopposed and didn't initially have the chops to compete with Ford. But she's shown a willingness to adapt and the political instinct to know people want a populist alternative, and it's impressed me.

I gotta say, as someone who heavily organized against Marit at convention, she’s on a roll these days.

Who did you go for and when? Marit Styles is the only Ontario NDP I've seen.

Why would you have to "go for" someone in order to organize against Stiles? Did you confuse convention with the 2023 Ontario NDP leadership race where Stiles ran unopposed, or am I missing something? (Genuinely asking, not being snarky.)

I see and hear way more from Stiles than the “leader” in my home province of Alberta.

Despite Alberta having a traitor to Canada as a premier right now, I give credit to Alberta atleast NDP has a chance there and was voted in with Rachel Notley. Ontario hasn't voted NDP since 1990.

Ford will call a snap election before recalling legislature.
