NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh has stopped declaring he is running to be prime minister, signaling a shift in strategy as his campaign struggles to gain traction. During the first two weeks of the federal election campaign, Singh faced small crowds and persistent questions about his leadership and the party’s future. The NDP is particularly weak in Atlantic Canada, where Singh recently campaigned in an effort to revive support. The party appears to be fighting for survival in several regions, raising concerns about its overall viability. Singh’s change in tone suggests a more defensive approach as the campaign progresses.
Not surprising—when your platform is all about growing government and taxing more, it's hard to get people excited. Maybe Canadians are finally realizing that more central planning isn’t the answer.

It’s frustrating to see Jagmeet backing off the bold vision—we need strong progressive voices pushing real change, not playing it safe when it gets tough.
