Broadbent was the last true left-wing leader of the NDP. Too bad so many decided decades ago that NDP would never be federally elected because supposedly they are “fiscally irresponsible”.
We are a nation of losers who have been scammed by PCs and Liberals to think that no one but them can rule properly.
This might have actually been true at the time. Not sure if it’s still true today. Someone with plausible labor credentials replacing Jagmeet might be what’s needed.

Jack Layton moved the NDP to centre-left, to be more palatable to centrist voters.
Singh hasn’t done anything to change that, as the old-guard running the party isn’t interested in moving back to the left.
