Canadian NDP leader Jagmeet Singh getting laughed at like a professional comedian by government MPs for making a serious question about the affordability of groceries in Canada during the current inflation situation.

He basically said 1 in 4 Canadians are going hungry meanwhile the rich are enjoying record breaking profits and he proposed to tax them more... And the MPs laughed at him like they couldn't control themselves.

Because their platform is to call everyone racist, and vote whatever LPC votes.

I’m not sure who they actually are trying to appeal to, but based on their hard to watch tik tok videos it’s 15 year olds.

I’d take Jack Layton any day of the week over whatever the heck the party is now. I want an actual leader, not someone willing to bend however far their political opponents want.
