Jagmeet Singh says Canada should consider having a permanent hybrid Parliament to attract more women and parents with young children to federal politics.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's freshly appointed cabinet includes a new ministerial post to tackle his election promises on mental health and addictions.
Jagmeet Singh warned on Thursday, October 7, 2021, that he is willing to "withhold votes" for Liberal legislation he does not agree with, including the budget.
Singh announced he is appointing Bob Dewar, a veteran NDP political strategist, to lead a review into what succeeded and what went wrong with the NDP's election campaign.
Jagmeet Singh is to tell the first meeting of the NDP caucus that pursuing Indigenous rights — including access to clean drinking water — will be a key priority for the party in this Parliament.
The uptick in political ads after the first leaders' debate was evident on Facebook, a venue Canada’s National Observer has been mining for trends by grouping the advertisements by topics, age groups, gender and the regions being targeted.
This was the second straight campaign where Jagmeet Singh rated as the most popular leader in Canada, only to wind up leading his party to a fourth-place finish, writes columnist Max Fawcett.
Jagmeet Singh said he feels secure in his leadership despite an NDP seat count that barely budged even though Canadians consistently rank him as the most popular party chief.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will be returning to Ottawa without the majority government mandate Liberals had hoped for when he called the early election last month.
There will be no let up in campaigning today, September 18, 2021, as the main party leaders count down the remaining hours and minutes to Monday's federal election.
As the federal election campaign nears its end, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh is fighting off criticism from progressive environmentalists by trying to shift the focus back to Justin Trudeau’s climate record.
