THE RECLAIMER: MANITOBA TOWN HALL POSTPONED, UPDATES ON THE NDP LEADERSHIP CONTEST, AND WELCOMING NEW SUPPORTERS (BONITA + BLAKE)
WE NOW HAVE REGIONAL ORGANIZERS IN SASKATCHEWAN AND BRITISH COLUMBIA
My friends, this week we have some incredibly exciting news: we’ve officially onboarded two regional organizing teams in British Columbia and Saskatchewan. We’ll be onboarding more teams throughout Western Canada, and once that is done, we will begin the process of onboarding teams for the rest of the country. In the coming days, we’ll post more info on our social media and our website about this, and introduce you to our newest organizers. These regional organizers will be focusing on planning and running virtual town halls to bring folks together to discuss how we can best support local riding associations, the people in them, and the folks who want to get involved with their riding associations but don’t know how. This is tough work!
WE WILL HAVE TO POSTPONE THE MANITOBA TOWN HALLS AND FUNDRAISING WORKSHOPS UNTIL WE CAN ONBOARD A REGIONAL TEAM
If you’re in Manitoba, you may be aware of our upcoming town hall dates at the end of this month. Due to a lack of Manitoba applicants, we have to delay the town halls until we can find a full team of organizers to take on the town halls.
We deeply apologise for the inconvenience, but we do not want to rush a town hall when we are not prepared. For that reason, we will be postponing the town halls until a team can be onboarded. We will keep you updated once we have a regional organizing team in Manitoba.
If you’re Manitoban and would like to be one of our regional organizers, here’s the application form: https://forms.gle/Uj4pzC7tqTJjJ4dBA

ON THE 2026 NDP LEADERSHIP CONTEST
Earlier this week, we sent out a press release regarding the upcoming leadership race, which will kick off on September 2nd! The release discusses the importance of a strong NDP in the face of an anti-labour Liberal government, and the importance of having as many candidates as possible on the leadership race stage. If you want to give that press release a read, we’ve attached it to this email for you.
Please also find attached a copy of a letter that we sent to the party's Chief Electoral Officer, National Director, and Table Officers, who make up the Leadership Vote Committee and Review Committee, meaning that they have authority to approve or reject leadership candidates. Bottom line, the NDP and Canadians as a whole need a diverse, exciting, competitive, and fair leadership race, and we hope that the people facilitating the race will commit to making that happen.
THANK YOU, BONITA ZARRILLO, AND BLAKE DESJARLAIS!
And if you give that press release a read, you’ll be delighted to find a quote from Bonita Zarrillo, former MP for Port Moody–Coquitlam, and Blake Desjarlais, former MP for Edmonton Griesbach.
They’ve joined alongside Rachel Blaney, and Matthew Green in supporting our movement! This movement grows more and more every day, and it’s a truly exciting time to be a New Democrat.
My friends, I look forward to the coming months, and I’m so happy to be in this with you all.
Until next time,
Keith de Silvia-Legault
