The Lewises are a remarkable Canadian political family whose philosophical roots go back four generations, beginning with Maishe Lewis, who fled Russia for Canada in 1921, unable to speak English and nearly penniless. Maishe’s son, David Lewis, was a major force behind the establishment of Canada’s first socialist political party. Together with his son, Stephen, now a UN ambassador, David pressured governments to pass social
welfare legislation. The latest member of the
family to make a name for himself is Stephen’s son Avi Lewis, a noted broadcaster/journalist.
