Jagmeet Singh

Singh invoked the memories of Regis Korchinski-Paquet, whose family has raised concerns about police involvement in her death in Toronto in May, and Stewart Kevin Andrews, an Indigenous man killed by police in Winnipeg in April, to make a point about how Black and Indigenous people have suffered violence or death at the hands of Canadian police.

The House of Commons is poised to re-open today, April 20, 2020, despite the COVID-19 pandemic, thanks to an impasse between the four main political parties.

Courtenay-Alberni MP Gord Johns and New Westminster-Burnaby MP Peter Julian have written a letter to Ottawa asking for “rent abatement programs” for small businesses. “It is not enough to appeal to the good-will of landlords to do the right thing," they wrote.

The contenders in Monday's, October 21, 2019, federal election spent the last day of the campaign calling for voters to unite behind their parties amid accusations of dirty politicking and outright lying.

With election day less than 48 hours away, Andrew Scheer suddenly found himself in the hot seat on Saturday, October 19, 2019, as reports linked the Conservative party to a co-ordinated effort to smear former caucus colleague Maxime Bernier and his nascent populist People's Party of Canada.

In an oped for National Observer, Jagmeet Singh said Canadian voters "have a choice. New Democrats will stop the Conservatives from forming government on Oct. 21 by winning seats all over the country."

On the right, Kenney and Legault have repackaged conservative values as populist. On the left, it's less about parties and more about activists.
