PP would like that, wouldn't he.

But WTF is Jagmeet playing at? The NDP is tied with the LPC at best and trailing them by a few points at worst. They're in the 15-20% territory. And that's without the NDP having a universally unpopular leader. He can't save Canada from an unabashedly corporate government in the face of Poilievre. A government that'll likely kill Jagmeet's signature achievements. Such a move should be the end of his leadership, but more importantly it would be bad for Canadians. I hope he's just posturing and just pushing Trudeau to resign, which he should absolutely do in my opinion.

I assume he's playing at two things:

  • distancing NDP from Trudeau government
  • encouraging Trudeau to resign

Trudeau will have over a month before Parliament is back in session to decide.

Oh yeah, that makes sense in addition to pressuring him to resign. That said, if Trudeau doesn't resign and parliament comes back in session, it's gonna look real funny when PP calls Jagmeet out on his promise to bring down the government and he doesn't.
