A Jagmeet Singh lead NDP will be a big threat to the federal Liberals as he will retake much of the NDP vote that went to the Liberals in the last election. He "out-Trudeaus" Trudeau on style, engagement with the common person, genuine likeability, etc etc. Singh is the Conservatives' best hope to regain power as he will ensure that the centre-left and left vote is once again more evenly split between the Liberals and NDP.

The provincial Liberals in Ontario have been trying very hard to defeat Singh in provincial elections as they recognized the threat he poses to their election chances in Ontario.
