Last week’s U.S. Presidential debate was full of memorable and informative moments, but if you didn’t watch to the end you may have missed the moment Democrat Presidential candidate Joe Biden gave a damning answer on the American oil & gas industry.
It would not be a major shock to see Singh come under an intense leadership review at the next NDP Annual General Meeting and potentially get replaced by a more hardline union NDP leader, as the hyper progressive base Singh has cultivated has not been a proven election winner in the past let along after what he has done in recent days.
His crown jewel on the global stage, is his Middle East policy. Historic peace agreements between Israel and the Arab world, drawing down troops embroiled in seemingly endless conflicts, even negotiations to end the Afghanistan war.
