Advancing the NDP agenda is not a win for Canadians—the government is not a daycare.
NDP policies are regressive and will harm struggling Canadians more than the Liberals or Conservatives ever could. Their so-called “progressive” policies are a wolf in sheep’s clothing—well-intentioned on the surface but fundamentally destructive. It’s the classic “road to hell is paved with good intentions” scenario, only on an even more damaging scale compared to the other two parties. (bolded to counteract your patented whataboutism)
There is ample evidence from certain U.S. states and European countries that many of the Federal NDP’s policies simply don’t work or are outright harmful to the very people they claim to fight for.
It doesn’t matter what motivates Singh—he continues to make poor choices by propping up a government that Canadians have clearly lost faith in.

Do you have evidence to support that the federal ndps policies as implemented in Europe and several US states have been unsuccessful? I’d be interesting to see what policies you Are attributing to the NDP and the evidence that they didn’t work is.
But the other interesting comment you make is the government isn’t a day care. I’d argue that fundamentally the role of government is a daycare.
Security is clearly is government responsibility. Between military and policing ensuring the safety of citizens is the role of government responsibility
Determine who is aloud in a country is the role of government.
When people get boo boos the health care system fixes them. Unless you are arguing against a government funded health care system this is the role of government
The state provides education for its citizens unless of course you are against that.
Quite frankly the government is a daycare service to its citizens. You likely enjoy many aspects of this daycare service. The governments role is to remove obstacles that create risk to citizens accomplishing their goals. If the government is in charge of security, education, health care and minimum incomes how aren’t they a day care.
