In most ridings, vote Liberal to defeat Poilievre. In Burnaby Central Vote NDP Jagmeet Singh NDP As the first racialized non-interim leader of a major federal party, Jagmeet proved he could collaborate and negotiate by pushing the ruling Liberal party to more generously fund CERB to help Canadians during COVID. He carried out the NDP public health care tradition by pushing the Liberal government on its Dental care and nascent Pharmacare programs. A lawyer and human rights activist who has always spoken up against racism, and puts people over politics, Jagmeet is a needed voice for Canadians from coast-to-coast.
