Singh won't bring the govt down, Singh wants his pension

[bradypauls]

No one takes Jagmeet seriously. He’s a terrible leader, even for his own party.

[keithrichards-iodb]

Singh is a sellout
He will support Trudeau and talk like he is not supporting him
Such a pathetic human

[michaelrevelle]

Lol how much longer are we going to go around on the carousel? Probably until March 1st, cuz we all know that the NDP ain't doing squash until then.

[alerickson]

Great! The sooner they can get the election going the sooner we can kick out Trudeau and start fixing our country.

[kellybrame-et]

There's likely up to 40 liberal party members who may vote nonconfidence.

[doubledcanada]

The ndp need to get on board or some of the unhappy liberals turn on him.

[angeladivetta]

It's really naive to think that Singh would do anything in favour of Canadians!! I wouldn't even allow Singh to stay in Canada!!

[RickMason-yjpv]

Disgruntled Libs could just cross the floor.

[Samuels-nzem]

The NDP are broke and Jagmeet needs his pension.

[herbertcomber]

There are still SPIES INSIDE THE HOUSE AND CABINET

[darleneaitken]

Jagmeet will never give up his power trip

[Tom-pvho]

Singh wants his golden pension nothing more and will not side with all
Canadians . We want an election now .

[darrenwandy]

Jaghmeet looking after himself and his pension. He doesnt care about canadians

[rawrss]

Sellout Singh - Won't do anything to jeopardize his pension.

[andyandy]

Let's choose the best...no liberals, NDP...these have brought Canada down. 😢😢😢😢😢

[kennethmelnychuk]

In this case, Jagmeet will support the government on a non-confidence vote.

He has clearly demonstrated that he doesn’t want to risk his eligibility to qualify and collect his lucrative MP pension.

He will ensure that the government stays in power until the October 27 election.

[darleneaitken]

Justin will put several million dollars in the NDP bank account, and the love fest will continue.

[johannafriedt]

No one should help Bloc - when they were requested help by PP they didn’t help. So everyone should just cool it & wait it out until next

[maureyrca]

Jug will never give up his pension no matter what Trudeau does or what he says to the contrary.
