NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh, having voted with his coalition partner Justin Trudeau three weeks ago to hike the carbon tax by 23%, faces political backlash as his approval rating dips into negatives for the first time. Canadians blame the NDP for supporting Trudeau's increasingly unpopular Liberal government. Singh is now seeking alternatives to the controversial carbon tax but won't say if he will cancel it, admitting the NDP lacks a plan for the environment. This indecision comes as the carbon price is dividing Canadians, with Trudeau expressing sympathy for the NDP's political challenges. Critics, including Pierre Poilievre and Maxime Bernier, highlight Singh's attempt to distance from his record, suggesting the NDP's support for Trudeau was a bad idea and warning of its potential decline to no party status.

Well maybe @theJagmeetSingh looked at the polls and sees that support @JustinTrudeau was a really really bad idea. I would say the NDP are looking at no party status after next election. Communism doesn’t sell very well in Canada. https://t.co/RbElbUi2Pe
