Without significant changes soon, the NDP will not have anything to offer for people looking for an actual progressive party.

The NDP had a pretty shitty election. Faced with a Liberal prime minister dragged down by a betrayal of his progressive rhetoric, the party under Jagmeet Singh had an excellent opportunity to make big gains, and they blew it.

They only gained one seat in a stagnant parliament, there was no breakthrough in Quebec and no stealing of seats in and around Toronto. It was more of the same.

Ever since 2011, the NDP have been trying to recapture the lightning in a bottle that was Jack Layton’s ascension to opposition leader. It was an odd election, with a profoundly unpopular Liberal leader, and while it may have hailed the party’s glory days, it also marked Stephen Harper’s one and only majority.

You could write the same subject line about the Conservatives. Meanwhile, Chrystia Freeland is being groomed for the PM job.

It was a lost opportunity.

The pandemic should have taught us that governments can change a country on a dime, that government policies matter and that government itself is important.
They could have used this opportunity to say, 'while we've shut everything down lets use this opportunity to start it back up more fairly'.
But the didn't.

get over it frank life is not fair

you need to earn what you have NOT have it given to you by the government via the taxpayer. you want everything given to you and “fair” try north Korea the government decides what you need and gives it to you.

you want things earn them

The NDP has always been, and will forever be, a party which is nothing more than a think tank for so-called "progressive" ideas. Their best ideas are embraced by the major political parties (thereby making the NDP irrelevant), and the rest are discarded by the other parties and the public (thereby making the NDP irrelevant).

That's ok. It serves a useful purpose as part of a democracy. However, no one should pine to be governed by a party with mostly bad ideas, and almost none of skill set needed to run a government.

I remember when the NDP at least styled itself to be the party of the working-class. Nowadays they don't even pretend.
