The decline was led by youth aged 15 to 24 years old, with a drop of 47,000.

It's like we're dead set on radicalizing our youth. :(

The youth unemployment rate is so bad. i)Just create a grade 13 to bring up everyone's education level.
ii)Make college free.

It's ok, Boomers still have all the money.

Hopefully we'll get an alternative voice to PP who can talk to young Canadians when the NDP leadership election is done. One that would offer them believable material improvements.

PPs bad plans, like "tying immigration to housing" whatever that means.

Its not just about what they offer but getting their voice out there as well. Much as i hate it, they'll have to make short form content like tiktoks or shorts to reach that demographic. Some podcast appearances could help as well.

Jagmeet also had a tik tok presence.

The presence is necessary but not sufficient.

Fingers crossed. But I'm not holding my breath.

Skepticism is super warranted. Skepticism of the mind, optimism of the will!

I'm hoping for Ashton, I think him being a worker will bring some actual legitimacy to a labour party. Unfortunately we'll probably get Lewis who seems about the same as Singh.

I voted Rob first, Avi second. I think while Avi looks Singh-like at first glance, is very different ideologically and when examined in detail or listened to. But if he's elected leader, he must convince you of that himself.
