Jagmeet Singh is telling Canadians he loves and cares for them and will be their unrelenting champion..The federal NDP leader expressed his sentiments of love and courage in a tweet on March 20..It’s not every day a political leader pours out his heart. More than 1.1 million people read the tweet, prompting nearly 5,000 likes. Alas, not all Canadians on Twitter were so receptive to his words of love and claims of faithfulness..Josie tweeted, “This is something you’d say to your child, not your employer. The taxpayer is his employer, not his child. Critical-thinking Canadian adults don’t need this.”.Not only did CaBird not believe Singh wrote these words, but he also was not even sure whoever did lived in Canada..The boxing metaphor may not have worked, given that the trainer is in a fighter’s corner and not the fighter himself. Besides this, some tweeters believed Singh was not fighting for them at all..“It’s your fault that we’re feeling like this. You continuously prop up the Trudeau Government! You’re a fraud!” said Mrs. FE, a Greek Canadian..“You're responsible for everything that's tough for us. You abetted Trudeau. Shove your disingenuous sentiments where the sun doesn't shine,” replied Sara..Singh gave the skeptical more reason to doubt as he voted against a Conservative motion to investigate Chinese election interference..Former Ontario MPP and Conservative leadership hopeful Roman Baber tweeted “I’m on to you Jagmeet. You were elected in February 2019. You qualify for MP pension in February 2025. That’s why, no matter how much you pretend to disagree w/ @JustinTrudeau, you put your pension ahead of Canadians #PeopleOverPension”.Others responded with disbelief..Rod Giltaca, CEO and executive director of the Canadian Coalition for Firearm Rights, had one question: “Is this a joke??”.Nicky P quipped, “I can't tell which accounts are satire and which ones are Justincorrigible.”.Many tweeters decided to parody Singh and refute him at the same time. While one reply simply drew “Justin” atop a picture of the Singh tweet, others like Ryan Gerritsen spelled it out in longer form..On Telford, at least, Gerritsen will get his wish. Elsewhere, @sarcasticrobb wrote, “I just want you to know I'm fighting for MY PENSION, and I'll never back down. (Rolex and bespoke suits ain't cheap, yo.)”.Dustin Morris put it this way: “I want you to know I support Trudeau and the Liberals making life unaffordable for you all. I also support you by driving my fancy cars and wearing my luxury watches.”.Perhaps the cynicism was unwarranted. After all, Singh’s Twitter bio suggests he really is all about the touchy-feelies. “Pronounced Jug (rhymes with hug)-MEET! | Leader of Canada's New Democratic Party | Le chef du NPD du Canada | Text me 👉🏽 613-801-8210.”.Unlike the rest (sort of), Rick Thetanski took Singh at face value.
