Ottawa, September 5: Leader of Canada's New Democratic Party (NDP) Jagmeet Singh has announced that he is withdrawing support to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's government. The NDP leader on Wednesday in a video posted on social media stated that he "ripped up" the supply-and-confidence agreement his party made with Trudeau's Liberal government, the Canadian news outlet CBC news reported.

Singh accused Trudeau of not being able to take on the opposition Conservatives, who polls indicate are set to easily win an election that must be held by end-October 2025.

"Justin Trudeau has proven again and again he will always cave to corporate greed. The Liberals have let people down. They don't deserve another chance from Canadians," Singh said in the video as cited by CBC. The NDP leader spoke of an "even bigger battle ahead" "The threat of Pierre Poilievre and Conservative cuts. From workers, from retirees, from young people, from patients, from families -- he will cut in order to give more to big corporations and wealthy CEOs," said Singh. Canada Slashes Foreign Worker Intake, PM Justin Trudeau Asks Businesses to Invest in ‘Canadian Workers and Youth’.

In a media statement accompanying his announcement, Singh said "the NDP is ready for an election, and voting non-confidence will be on the table with each and every confidence measure."

Meanwhile, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre called Singh's announcement a "stunt" and criticized him for not saying whether he would vote non-confidence in the government.
