“It’s been 10 years since we lost Jack”

NDP leader Jagmeet Singh released a statement earlier today, on the 10-year anniversary of the passing of Jack Layton.

Singh spoke about the former NDP leader’s focus on reconciliation, climate change and fairness, and invited Canadians to text him at 613-801-8210 to share the different ways that Jack Layton inspired them.

“It’s been 10 years since we lost Jack. All of us who he inspired are still fighting for the better country he knew — and we all know — is possible.

“Jack believed in true reconciliation, in action on climate change and in a fairer country where we take care of each other. In this campaign, that’s what we’re fighting for. Text me at 613-801-8210 to share how Jack inspired you.”
