’In the interest of all Canadians’

While Pat Martin invokes the Rapture, the president of the Canadian Auto Workers endorses an NDP-Liberal merger.

In his letter to Martin, Lewenza praises Harper’s “incredibly successful” vision in uniting the right. “The writing has been on the wall since the Conservative alliance,” says the letter. “To suggest otherwise would be misleading and not credible. The CAW would be prepared to take part in this idea in the interest of progressive politics in the interest of all Canadians.”
