Nope. Time for Singh to kick rocks.
If the party suffers under your leadership, you are not right for the party.
The metric for the NDP isn't how many seats they get, because they're never going to get into power. Its how much influence they are able to apply to the government. By that metric, the NDP have been doing well.
Except the sabre-rattling that could let Milhouse into power and damn the country. Aside from that, it was good. When Jagmeet had the screws to Justin and was getting things people needed, that was a good thing that the power play killed.
I don't think we'll get that back, even under Mark, and that'll be the lasting damage here.
The government was going to fall if Trudeau didn't retire. With that context, it didn't really cost our country anything, and it allowed the NDP to demonstrate to the next government that they have agency and the will to use it.
