NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh says he “absolutely” feels he has the leverage to angle for action on his party’s policy priorities, thanks to the Liberals’ recent drop in the polls.
Now, with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau appearing to take a dip in support after a summer spent trying to refocus his government, Singh says he’ll be taking this opportunity to pressure his partners to act on policy areas that are outside of the existing agreement. In the time since the two parties entered into this arrangement, Singh has managed to secure progress on some policies not already baked into the deal, most notably a boost to the GST rebate.
“Ultimately right now, where the leveraging, and the ‘taking advantage’ part of the arrangement is coming into force is that nobody wants this country to be thrust into an unnecessary election — frankly an unnecessary and expensive election,” Monk said.
