He ran in two general elections, came in third for both. In two different ridings, I'll add. 2021 and 2025.

    He ran for NDP under Singh. Thats as much Singhs fault as any NDP running under him. Also, he is the first to be trying to pull the party back to pro worker positions so give him time. Nearly every other NDP leader we've seen in a long while have been centrists and that rarely works out for them.

    Edit: for all your weird targeted Lewis hate i hope you at least acknowledge he is rising in polls, and starting to bite at CPC numbers. Singh and Mulcair did nothing but erase NDP support.

    Hey, he can have all the CPC voters he wants. Sooner that party resets the better for Canada. That by no means says he'll lead the NDP to government, though.

    And if your bar is Singh, it's on the floor. That supply and confidence agreement with Trudeau was dumb. And while that explains the result in 2025, what's your excuse for 2021? Singh hadn't screwed up the party yet.
