The MeidasTouch Podcast
Canada NDP Leader STRIKES BACK at Trump’s THREATS

So I ran for the first time ever at the federal level, so like a congressman. And I came really close and wasn't able to pull it off. And then I ran again provincially, so I got elected provincially. I was provincial, like a state representative for a number of years. I became deputy leader and then made the plunge into federal politics and became leader federally.

And then when we were in politics federally, we were able to use minority governments to get things done. So we got dental care in, which has helped out, like I mentioned, millions of Canadians. Dental care is covered for seniors and for kids, for families that earn $90,000 or less. So you can go to a dentist and your dental bills are covered. That's something that we fought for, we made happen.

We fought to bring in Pharmacare. So that's a free diabetes medication devices and birth control. And we were able to bring in better laws to protect workers so that when they go on strike, The boss can't bring in replacement workers or scabs. So we brought in anti-scab legislation. So the journey, I guess, tried to do a little quick summary of some of the political wins and some of the fight.

Well, I'd say when it comes to Canada, let me be very clear. Canadians do not want to be a part of the United States. They're proud of being Canadians. We do not want a for-profit healthcare system where you go bankrupt if you have a heart attack or if you have a cancer diagnosis. We are proud of our country. And if you want to pick a fight with us, it's going to hurt you as well.
