    This is horrifying.

    Union leaders say the Conservative frontman borrows the language of the working class, but in fact poses a threat to organized labour, citing his frequent support for back-to-work legislation over 20 years in Parliament.

    Yeah, no shit. If workers buy this bullshit and let pipsqueak ride them to victory, he’s gonna keep riding them hard into the sunset afterwards. It’s a bait-and-switch. It’s tragic that the NDP is not talking to workers.

      the NDP is not talking to workers

      The NDP is not talking to anyone. They’re basically AWOL. They don’t post on YouTube. They rarely make national news (except when MPs are quitting).

      I guess they were involved in pharmacare and the national daycare deal, but other than Singh periodically threatening to pull out of the pact with the Liberals, I haven’t heard anything from them.
