This week on Unusual Sources, Brendan and Doug discuss NDP foreign policy issues with Hamilton Mountain NDP activist Henry Evans-Tenbrinke.
For many years, peace and justice activists have been advocating that the NDP take more independent and fair positions on international issues such as Israel/Palestine, Syria, Korea, Arms sale to Saudis, and Venezuela. How can Canada have an independent foreign policy while being a member of NATO? How did the NDP's long-standing policy to withdraw from NATO quietly disappear?
Peace and justice activists will be pushing the NDP to adopt better independent policies during the NDP Policy Convention in February. A number of policy resolutions from the Hamilton Mountain and other Riding Associations NDP and others at the February NDP Convention.
