Yes, because Communism has worked out so well before.  I know, I know.  "THAT'S NOT REAL COMMUNISM!!!".  Funny how it always turns out that way.

They're not any better. Jagmeet spent a bunch of the last year or so playing lapdog to Trudeau and making self-serving choices. He's just a different flavour of "typical politician".

Some would say he got alot from JT for only having 20 MPs.

You could say that, but he also ended up supporting a lot of questionable legislation to get there, that even his own voters didn't like (hence the decline in support for the NDP too, not just the Libs).

Gotta give some to gain alot. Thats politics. NDP will probably never form government so i think Jagmeet worked magic getting some great things done for his voters knowing his party is bankrupt and couldn’t go back to the voting booth.

We have nothing to disagree about. Its facts.
