flag NDP candidate Rob Ashton accuses Avi Lewis of splitting the party over fossil fuel policies, warning it helps conservatives.

flag Federal NDP leadership candidate Rob Ashton has accused rival Avi Lewis of dividing the party by criticizing provincial governments' fossil fuel policies, particularly B.C.’s LNG projects, arguing such actions weaken unity and benefit conservative leaders. flag Ashton, a union leader, stressed federal support for provincial NDP achievements, while Lewis, a climate advocate, continues to oppose new fossil fuel developments and backs a Green New Deal. flag The criticism marks a shift toward more direct conflict in an otherwise civil race, with Lewis seen by supporters as a front-runner despite the pushback. flag The leadership vote is set for March.
