The new NDP leader says he is quite comfortable without a seat in the House of Commons. For Singh, who has been leader for less than six weeks, the comparable numbers are 79 per cent. It turned out none at the table had heard of the NDP leader, the man this Ottawa refugee had so assiduously studied in question period. Singh might have been wise to seek a seat if there was a good fit, but there isn’t. In Scarborough-Agincourt, they won only 8 per cent, to the 52 per cent won by the late Liberal Arnold Chan.
