NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh expressed disappointment in the Canadian government’s 2024 budget on Tuesday, saying the Liberals “ignored the opportunity to take on corporate greed.”
The NDP has a supply-and-confidence agreement with the minority-governing Liberals, which will face a federal election no later than 2025.
Global’s Mercedes Stephenson breaks down Singh’s comments on the budget and whether they could hint at the NDP voting against it.

And Singh keeps him in power.
Why would they tackle corporate greed when they are in on it? THEY caused the problem, reap in the benefits, and are giving crumbs to the people and wonder why are these peasants so angry? Curious as to why they will change the criminals code only for offenders of violent car jackings and not all car thieves? Is there not enough budget to fund our prisons? AI can help. Why do people need 20 luxury cars and 10 homes? That's plenty of tax $$ to fix this dump of a country. What a corrupt government if we ever had one in the history of this country. If anything, we see this as an example of why no one should trust government.
If they were serious about it they would all take a cut to wait they earn but that will never happen cause of greed.
need at least like 20 parties for a true democracy…
He pretends he hates it because he knows how unpopular Trudeau is but he’s going to support it. It’s insulting to act as if we’re stupid enough to believe he’s considering. Take note voter, he thinks you’re idiots. Please prove him wrong
Love how he says corporate greed meanwhile hes holding Canada hostage by not voting for a new election for his greedy pension.
A warning label before any one tries to read this budget : Its Ultra Woke – targeted at vote buying
The budget falsely claims that for a household , carbon tax rebates are more than carbon taxes
A few things stand out
– The budget expects $20 to $30 billion more in federal tax revenue each year
– Real GDP growth is almost none existent
– The federal debt is actually $1.33 Trillion
– Debt service charges are now $47 billion and are expected to rise to $54 BILLION for 2025
– Saying inflation is 2.5% for 2024 is a flat out lie
– What is the point of spending millions on AI development is if Trudeau is going let walk out the door ?
.
He's not happy, but he'll continue to throw the country under the bus.
Singh just wants his pension!!!!!!
Jagmeet will vote with the liberals. He is a wus
How about singh's greed you know the 600.ooo$ he billed tax payers on his own greedy ways!
Jagmeet Singh is not going away soon. He is posturing- marking time until his GOLDEN PENSION arrives.
Oh no! Oil and Gas and big business grocers might leave if they are taxed more after record breaking profits? Good riddance! We don't need more corporate growth. Corporations under our capitalist system do more harm than good. We need Doughnut Economics, not Linear Wasteful Capitalism.
Funny how neoLiberal policy and Conservative policy are just like two cheeks of the same backside. Both capitalist supporting, through and through, but PP and the Cons seem to be fooling people into giving him more power so he can make life in Canada even more unequal, more power to the corporations and less to the people. I can already see it: Pierre will blame all problems if he is in power on Trudeau saying "he made such a bad problem, we can't fix it yet, the high cost of living is Trudeau's fault always, and never ours."
He would know all about greed.
In reply to Mr Singh, Trudeaus handmaiden, I would say the budget doesnt go far enough to tackle NDP/Lib government greed!
Ukraine has better health care, housing, infastructure and a better standard of living than Canada right now even while fighting a "war" with Russia.
Jagmeet = Hypocrite
We have failed to tackle Jagmeet’s greed for a pension and his running our country in to the ground
New Debt Party ?
Look up the doomsday clock
Get rid of the subsidized TFW program, it will end handouts AND create jobs for Canadians.

I cant wait to be paying off Trudeaus debt for my entire life so that Jagmeet and his clowns can get their pensions.
Flush it
Liberals NDP let it make skid marks on the way out.
I’m 100% to vote ?? Poilievre!!
FJT and liberal voters
Pension, pension, pension. That's all Jagmeet cares fir
What kind of greed is it when you subvert a nation's democratic process so you can qualify for a pension?
That's not pharmacare he got nothing
No No Jagmeet doesn't support corporate greed, he doesn't even know what it is. He does on the other hand support hush money and bribes to turn a blind eye to fraud and embezzlement.
LibNDP working hard to suck the life out of the economy.
Corporate greed ? How ridiculous when our retirement investments are in Canadian corporations, we want them to do well .
He is eying his pension. He knows NDP has no future. This budget was garbage, im with pierre. Election!!!!
But they will still support the liberals…. The NDP are Spineless !
He holds all the power to change government
At least he got free dental care for people over 97. Way to go?
Jagmeet supports Trudeau, he votes with liberals. Ndp will never vote against Trudeau.
Be quiet! JAGMEET , we know now about your 588 thousand expense aim.
Ndp/liberal coalition is not cool.
Pharmacare isnt even legislated yet! Lol. So no one will see that to fruition till prob election time next year. And i bet thats one thing the ndp and libs will campaign on. "Vote for us bc we will pass that pharma and dentalcare plans, this time". Smh. Ndp need to be voted out of existence and if they vote for this reporters need to do their job and ask him why he stayed in the coalition so long when lib did not keep their end of the bargain??
Hilarious seeing Jagmeet pretending to disagree with our current regime's corruption. He is the one prolonging this whole mess by another 2 years.
We all know Jagmeet will pass the budget as he wants his pension. Because of the NDP support of the Liberals the NDP will be lucky to have 1 seat beside the Green Party in 18 months
The bubble head “Chrystia Freeland” and Justin Trudeau are using taxpayers' money to buy VOTES.
What is this WEF inspired "Global tax"? I've heard very little about it. I don't know if this is truth or otherwise. As for the rest of this disaster, it's going to impoverish Canadians further. Eyewatering taxation, ever higher inflation, more flight of investment, resulting in poorer productivity, and ultimately higher unemployment. Did a bunch of monkey's put this together?
jagmeets not happy because trudeau didn;t go after him and his party
corporate greed needs to stop though. 1 ceo doesn't need 34million dollars, price colluding must stop, and the formation of monopolies
i read artical in canadian news where it said fighting fire with fire .i was like oops . fragility is exposed . ?
Singh is all talk, no action, in the end he's Trudeau's henchman.
I am surprised!! Mr. Pee Pee isn’t supporting the Trudeau budget. Who would’a thought? LOL
Liberal Party = Corporate Greed!
Failed Liberals again, NDP will always support Trudeau Commies. I will be very worries about what the Commie Trudeaus have buried inside the budget paperwork. Nothing good for Canadians here!
