It’s nice to see Wab Kinew supporting the federal NDP. Right now the federal NDP is not doing too great, so it would make sense for Wab Kinew to try and distance himself and the rest provincial NDP from the federal party. But Wab hasn’t done that. He decided to show up and support the NDP, despite their poor performance in the last election. It’s nice to see.

I fairness, Kinew does have a bit of a history of distancing himself from the federal party.

But it's good that they're having a love-in while they can - I suspect it won't last forever.
