Pro-Khalistan Jagmeet Singh Crushed by Carney in Canada Election, Resigns After Embarrassing Defeat

Pro-Khalistan New Democratic Party (NDP) leader Jagmeet Singh suffered a major political blow as he lost his seat in Burnaby Central to Liberal candidate Wade Chang in the 2025 Canada federal elections. With just 27% of the vote, Singh was decisively defeated, prompting his resignation as party leader. The NDP also faces the loss of its national status, winning fewer than the 12 seats required.
