I have good #news to share with #Canadians, the #NDP, and its #supporters.
The @NDP was only 1 of 2 parties that increased its #donations in the second quarter of 2020, and is the only party to have 35% increase from March 2020. That is significant for a few reasons #cdnpoli

It was on or before May 22, that the #media first incorrectly reported that the #NDP had applied for a wage subsidy, wrongfully targeting the party as though it was the only one, when in fact the #Liberals, #Conservatives & #Greens the same.
#Canadians rallied behind the NDP.

June 9, #NDP pulled support of the #Liberals after Liberals wanted to push for changes to #CERB that could have resulted in some being punished for receiving the benefit wrongfully. The previous 3 months were about NDP getting Liberals to roll out benefits https://globalnews.ca/news/7047067/trudeau-singh-ndp-cerb-reform/
June also saw a month where @theJagmeetSingh & the @NDP stood up in the fight against #racism. It showed a moment where the leader called out a member of the #Bloc for their inappropriate actions in the #HOC, yet he was ejected from the HOC. https://www.cp24.com/news/i-called-him-a-racist-singh-kicked-out-of-house-for-refusing-to-apologize-to-bloc-mp-1.4988514 #cdnpoli
In May, it was the @NDP & @theJagmeetSingh that pushed & prompted the #Trudeau #Liberals to implement paid sick leave for #Canadians who are affected by the #COVID19 crisis. This led to Trudeau having to negotiate with provinces to gain more NDP support. https://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/feds-pledge-to-push-provinces-for-paid-sick-leave-following-ndp-prompt-1.4952877
This, after months of the #NDP basically leading the #Liberals & assisting the party in determining how they can successfully assist Canadians during the crisis. This all explains why, in part, the #NDP is the only party to get an increase in #donations of 35%. #cdnpoli
