OTTAWA — Federal NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh has survived his leadership review, but support from his party is declining.
During the second day of the NDP convention in Ottawa, 81 per cent of delegates voted in favour of Singh following his keynote speech.
It's the lowest confidence vote for an NDP leader since Tom Mulclair, who was rejected by more than half of delegates at the party's 2016 convention in Edmonton. In 2021, Singh received support from 87 per cent of delegates and in 2018 he received nearly 91 per cent support. Some delegates at the NDP convention have been critical of the party's confidence-and-supply agreement with the Liberals.This report by The Canadian Press was first published Oct. 14, 2023.
