Canadians are ‘done with Justin Trudeau,’ Singh says
Global News
'People are telling us again and again that they are fed up with and frustrated with Justin Trudeau,' NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh said on the first day back of the fall sitting.
NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh said Monday that Canadians “are finished with and done” with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau days after pulling out of a supply-and-confidence agreement with the Liberals earlier this month.
Singh was speaking to reporters in Ottawa on the first day back for MPs as Parliament returned after summer break.
“People are telling us again and again that they are fed up with and frustrated with Justin Trudeau, who has let big corporate grocery stores rip them off,” Singh said.
“He’s let big corporate landlords jack up rents and so people tell me that they are finished with and done with Justin Trudeau.”
Singh comments come as a new Ipsos poll conducted exclusively for Global News released on Monday showed that support for Trudeau and his Liberal government has hit a “new low,” with just over one-third of Canadians (33 per cent) approving of the Trudeau government.
Meanwhile, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre, who has led in the polls for more than a year, was favoured by 45 per cent of Canadians surveyed by Ipsos, who said he would make the “best prime minister of Canada.”
Fewer Canadians felt that way about the incumbent prime minister, however, with 26 per cent saying Trudeau was their top pick for the job. Singh was not far behind with the support of 23 per cent of Canadians.
Darrell Bricker, global CEO of Ipsos public affairs, said out of the top three political party leaders, Singh has “got the most work to do.”
