Election nights are usually topped off with live speeches by each major party leader, acknowledging their loss or victory, thanking their colleagues and supporters. But since this federal election has been anything but ordinary, why would the speeches be any different? Of the three major leaders, the NDP’s Jagmeet Singh started first in Burnaby, B.C.
