You might know Ed Broadbent as the former leader of Canada's federal NDP.

On this episode of Sources, PressProgress Editor Luke LeBrun is joined by Luke Savage, a contributor to Jacobin and co-author of Broadbent's book  Seeking Social Democracy, to explain and remember Ed Broadbent's life and his ideas.
