Jagmeet Singh to step down as NDP Leader after losing seat

[Castanet News]

Jagmeet Singh says he will step down as the leader of the NDP as soon as new interim leader is chosen. Singh conceded defeat in his British Columbia riding of...

He got his golden pension and laughing all the way to the bank. He doesn’t and never did care about Canadians or Canada. He’s a traitor to Canada. I’d say more but I’d probably get censored or worse lol Good riddance #SelloutSingh

So much respect for this man. His humanity, his dignity, and his service to our country. I hope he continues working to make Canada a better place for ALL Canadians.

The last month has been " carney can be leader of a party as he has no seat" so, does Pierre Poilievre have to resign as he has no seat now?

[k1100lt]

Far too late for his resignation but on the positive side, he will now retire comfortably not caring one hoot for the disaster he created as the leader of the NDP.

[carneyforthewin]

He earned every penny. If you want to.....you can run and try to get the same. He has probably had more sleepless nights thinking for the benefit of others than anyone around here. Freedom to become a politician costs a buck oh faave.

Singh ruined Canada by backing Trudeau.

I didn't see evidence of that.......Canada was made better by Singh. He and his party fell due to circumstances swirling below us in the US under trump.

Hard to believe that the US main stream media is monitoring and commenting on Canadian politics.
Evrything must be Trumps fault, including the NDP pummeling at the polls.

Ultimately, that's what turned this election into a two-horse race and left the NDP and Bloc both sharing the short end of the stick. That being said, the supply and Confidence Agreement did fill a few items on the NDP wishlist that wouldn't have happened with the Liberals alone, Dental Care and Pharmacare to name a couple of big ones. Pierre Poilievre and the CPC droning on about "Sell Out Singh" certainly hammered a few nails into Mr. Singh's coffin, and his failure to connect with enough Canadians to grow the ranks of the NDP signals a need for new blood.

He was shot down, shot himself in the foot over the last few years. He is not stepping down. He backed a loser.

Singh had more sleepless nights worrying about his gold plated pension and how to swindle Canadians by propping up the worst PM in history to keep it. Singh is a Rolex wearing, Maserati socialist and Canadians will be paying on his behalf for decades. Carney will increase spending by 30% above that of Trudeau. He ruined the UK and will help us on our way to the same end.

The NDP party collapsed because they are ideologue idiots. Their ability to be a prop also made everyone realize they are not needed because the Liberals are also ideologue idiots, and you only need one. Singh is responsible for the whole parties demise.

Stepped down? More like fired. The people kicked his can to the curb. But he made sure to stay long enough in parliament so that he can bleed the taxpayers for the rest of his life

[contestwinner]

had he taken Trudeau down a few years ago he may have stood a chance in this election.

How did he make Canada better? Please explain this.

Oh here comes the excuses..... he failed because of Trump LOL.

Man you leftist are so brain dead it's rather sad honestly.
