When Peter last filmed in Oshawa (@CompanyTownDoc) we were sparking hope in our city through the struggle to convert the then-closing GM plant to public EV production. Now we're using #ClimateArt to bring a broader #JustTransition vision to our downtown with @DeliverComPower

Friends, I'm announcing that I'm seeking the NDP nomination for West Vancouver-Sunshine Coast-Sea to Sky Country. We're in a unique moment with the opportunity to fix the overlapping crises we face but only if we do it together, for the many, not the few eventbrite.ca/e/avi-lewis-ca…
