Trudeau's abusive relationship with the truth regarding climate action

Avi Lewis: Trudeau government’s abusive relationship with the truth regarding climate action

An excerpt of Avi Lewis from the recent rabble politics panel, Off the Hill: Will Budget 2022 build Canada forward?

Avi Lewis is a documentary filmmaker, journalist, educator, and co-founder of The Leap – a grassroots climate organization launched to upend our collective response to the crises of climate, inequality and racism. In 2021’s federal election, Avi was the NDP candidate in the West Vancouver–Sunshine Coast–Sea-to-Sky riding and is currently an Associate Professor in Geography at the University of British Columbia.

The entire webinar can be viewed on rabbletv. Off The Hill is rabble’s live monthly panel which delves into current issues of national political significance through a progressive lens. Discussions are centred on impacts of politics and policy on people, and on mobilizing to bring about progressive change. The panel is hosted by alternating hosts, Libby Davies and Robin Browne.
