Singh is inexperienced and arrogant,. The reason he lacks long term vision in the NDP context is he's not one of us ie. those who share Jack Layton's mind set. What a wasted opportunity this Liberal minority gov't situation is because Singh is ego driven rather than pragmatic.
IMHO Singh has failed to use the Liberal minority gov't situation realistically and appropriately as an ally focused on moving NDP policies forward via collaboration because he's focused on what he can't have ie. the PM's position. IMO the next gov't will be a Liberal majority.
1/2 Singh is delusional. We all know that all minority gov'ts must be prepared for an election at all times as a non-confidence motion can be made when the Parliament is sitting. See the next tweet.
"The thought that the Liberals wouldn't commit not to having an election is so craven and so crass given the seriousness of what we're going through, the third wave increasing and the variants increasing," Singh said. https://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/ndp-convention-targets-inequality-as-contentious-planks-threaten-to-steal-spotlight-1.5380601
At that same NDP convention "Broadbent drew comparisons between the Great Depression and the COVID-19 pandemic, saying both cataclysms offered an opportunity to rebuild social safety systems with government at the tiller." That can't be done without negotiation and collaboration.
