    I have maintained critical support for Singh despite being significantly to the left of him. I have appreciated that he has made significant progress for working people with the supply and confidence deal despite the relatively weak electoral position held by the party.

    That aside, this is the sort of thing to make me question judgement. The NDP has the fewest landlord MPs by a wide margin which is a significant public image victory. Having the leader of the party connected to owning rental properties like this is a huge own goal that would have been very easy to avoid. There are a lot of other places Singh’s family could have placed it’s wealth and made a fine return, it didn’t have to be this one.
