Honestly, as much as I hate to say it, I suspect racism stops them from getting some votes. Jagmeet also seems to have the personality (at least publicly) of leftover chicken noodle soup.
I used to hate Mulcair, but he might actually do better polling right now.
Definitely some great points - I especially like the connection you make between the economy and his platform.
It's awful that the US elected someone who will make that economy so much worse though, at least for the working class.
