NDP want Liberals to expand GST rebate, fund school lunches in upcoming budgetOTTAWA — The New Democrats have used their agreement with the Liberal government as leverage to push for more ways to save Canadians money in the next federal budget, leader Jagmeet Singh says. "It's not in our agreement, but the agreement gives us the leverage to push for things like that." Other budget priorities for the NDP include reforming employment insurance and creating more affordable housing spaces. Singh said he's "confident" the Liberal government will fulfill its promises in the upcoming budget. Canadians can also expect to see a pharmacare bill this year, as stipulated by the agreement, Singh said.
