Punctuating her address several times with her trademark, full-sized laugh, the newly-elected Valérie Plante said that “we have lots of work to do in the coming years,” and appealed directly to Montrealers for their help in “getting [it] done.”

Jagmeet Singh says he's witnessed the devastation of British Columbia's opioid overdose epidemic and it breaks his heart.

The Liberal plan to legalize pot next year will not only make history. It may be key to the governing party’s chances of re-election in 2019.

The newly-minted New Democratic Party leader has no seat in the Commons. He said Caron will be a thoughtful and qualified parliamentary leader who helps signal that Quebec is important.

He's young, hip and brimming with charisma, a likable rookie with an eye for style and a robust following on social media who wants to be Canada's next prime minister. Sound familiar?

One of the most pressing issues for a political party after a leadership race is the issue of party unity and the NDP is no exception, said former party national director Karl Belanger.

The Jagmeet Singh juggernaut began barrelling towards Parliament Hill on Sunday as the 38-year-old turbaned Sikh bounded past his three more experienced rivals.

In an interview with National Observer, NDP leadership hopeful Jagmeet Singh says the key to his success—so far—has been appealing to people's values, not party lines.
