在2025年的阴沉选举之后,国民民主党的领导人竞选开始了,候选人对党的未来方向有分歧。 The NDP's leadership race opens after a dismal 2025 election, with candidates split on the party's future direction.

新民主党(Federal New Democratic Party)领导人竞选始于候选人Heather McPherson、Avi Lewis和Rob Ashton在2025年选举表现不佳后竞选最高职位,只赢得7个席位和6.3%的选票。 The federal New Democratic Party’s leadership race has begun with candidates Heather McPherson, Avi Lewis, and Rob Ashton vying for the top spot following the party’s poor 2025 election performance, winning only seven seats and 6.3% of the vote. McPherson指责该党因失败而转向意识形态纯洁,而Lewis则提倡民粹主义平台,关注诸如保健、教育和老年人护理等工薪阶级问题,反对由出口驱动的大型基础设施项目。 McPherson blames the party’s shift toward ideological purity for its defeat, while Lewis promotes a populist platform focused on working-class issues like health care, education, and elder care, opposing large export-driven infrastructure projects. Ashton是一位具有工人阶级形象的工会领袖,他避免在关键问题上采取坚定立场,说他将把决定推迟到党员和核心小组做出,并质疑他处理竞选批评的能力。 Ashton, a union leader with a working-class image, has avoided taking firm stances on key issues, saying he will defer decisions to party members and the caucus, raising questions about his ability to handle campaign criticism. 这场比赛反映了党内对未来方向和重建支持战略的深刻分歧。 The race reflects deep internal divisions over the party’s future direction and strategy for rebuilding support.
