The fact that I don't know who anyone in the NDP is besides Jagmeet and Charlie says a lot about their campaign strategy.

I don’t really know anyone in the Conservative party besides the nutjobs in power, and I know Liberals because they also had power.

I know the NDP people I’ve voted for, but why would I know everyone else all that intimately? There’s a lot going on and they’re not exactly regularly in the news(which is a pretty good thing, for politicians).

I couldn't tell you the name of the NDP candidate I snubbed to vote defensively for the LPC (we flipped a CPC riding!). But I recognized the LPC candidate as they'd been around for several election cycles despite not winning all of them.

NDP needs to run candidates willing to lose multiple cycles before winning. Every year they're starting from scratch.

I'd just one single email to be about anything other than begging donations. But nope. Nothing. No meet n greet. No survey. No poll. Just beggars emails.

The NDP guy in my own riding is that guy you’re looking for, and I’m sure there are others. I remember this Singh guy who maintained leadership despite not winning first try, too, maybe you should look him up. And I’m positive that I’ve had plenty of other communications from them other than begging for donations and I don’t remember any emails or anything begging for donations, either.

I’m not saying you’re lying on purpose, but what you are saying isn’t exactly reality, either.
