The NDP’s Jagmeet Singh, who has been leading the left-wing party for almost seven years, has been pressing hard to appeal to Canada’s 1.8 million Muslims.
And it’s working, according to a revealing May poll by the Angus Reid Institute. Forty-one per cent of Canada’s Muslims are now ready to vote for Singh, compared to 31 per cent for Justin Trudeau. Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives appeal to just 15 per cent of Muslims.
However, for Singh that’s about the only good news.
