NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh Highlights Achievements Over Conservatives During Campaign Stop in Edmonton

In a recent campaign stop in Edmonton, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh claimed that the contributions of his party's two Alberta MPs outshine those of more than thirty Conservative MPs from the same province during the last parliamentary session. Emphasizing the NDP's commitment to taking action, Singh encouraged voters to support his party, contrasting their proactive approach with what he characterized as mere noise from the Conservative side.

Singh highlighted the NDP's effectiveness in encouraging the minority Liberal government to make significant advancements in areas such as dental care, pharmacare, and worker protections as a result of his party's backing in the House of Commons. As Canadians prepare to vote in the general election scheduled for April 28, he noted that the NDP previously held 24 seats in Parliament but that recent polls suggested a decline in public support for the party.

Citing concerns many Canadians have regarding rising costs for groceries and rent, Singh stressed that neither Mark Carney's Liberals nor Pierre Poilievre's Conservatives would advocate for necessary price caps on essential goods. He made a case for the NDP's role as a defender of public services, urging voters not to grant too much power to Carney and to ensure New Democrats are present to represent the interests of Canadians.
