Avi Lewis introduces Lecture Series; Naomi Klein on Climate Debt

The Inaugural David Lewis Lecture

On February 25, 2010, Naomi Klein gave a lecture on the issue of climate debt, organized by the CCPA.

This was the first in a series of lectures in honour of David Lewis (1909-1981), a leading labour lawyer, life-long social democrat, a founder of the NDP and its national leader from 1970 to 1975. His grandson Avi Lewis introduced the lecture series.

The lecture series will focus on issues that were important to David Lewis: social democracy, organized labour, and income inequality.

The event was media sponsored and livestreamed by rabble.ca.

Support Our Work

The CCPA’s bold vision and creative solutions help us imagine better futures for all. Its efforts to build bridges between labour, industry, and civil society and mentor young activists lay the foundation for realizing those provocative futures. I consider my support for the CCPA an investment in a better future for British Columbia.
