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.
