    Yeah, but the same thing can be said of most politicians these days. They stick to their talking points and don’t go off-script much.

    I mean I hate it too, but it’s what politics is now.

      I unfortunately understand that but it’s more that the headline is using the “non-answer” for their question.

      “Are you the right leader for the NDP?”

      “I am absolutely the right leader for the country”

      Title: “Singh says he is the right leader for the NDP”

      I suppose it could be a good way to combat their non-answers by using it literally to quote them and make them look dumb.
