Can't wait to say I told you so when he loses his seat to the CPC
Voters here like the provincial NDP, not the federal NDP. They're far from the same thing. Besides, the only reason they barely won is because Eby is like really based. He should run for federal NDP, would be easy win.
Think through the logic and facts of what you're proposing.
Singh is the leader of the party and will thus be given a safe seat.
Burnaby has multiple such seats, that 338 agrees will probably stay orange.

You misunderstanding or misinterpreting them doesn't change their validity.
It is possible that Singh could lose his seat in the same way I could draw an ace from a shuffled deck, it could happen but it's not particularly likely.
Which is why the notion that Singh is supporting the government on the off chance that the polls are wildly wrong to make sure he gets a pension is a downright silly idea.
