Which are?
We left it open ended so people could fill in the blank on their own. Chance at governing, or gaining seats, or holding the Liberals to account, or passing more social legislation, or replacing the Liberals as the progressive voice of Canadians, etc.
I voted: UnsureI haven’t heard anything about eliminating poverty from the NDP since Singh has become leader. You would think that a Guaranteed Annual Income would have been the first thing they pushed the Liberals for. Instead they chose universal dental care. Also an important program but it doesn’t address poverty, which one would think would be the NDP’s #1 priority.
I voted: YesToo many questions have gone unanswered. We can't have anyone interfering in our elections. It's already bad enough with big business and unions getting personally involved. We need a full public inquiry and then we need a government that is willing to make broad changes to ensure democracy in Canada always remains in the hands of the people.
