Meanwhile, Jagmeet Singh of the New Democratic Party (NDP) remains in the race but trails behind in the polls. The Quebec-based Bloc Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois is also contesting the elections.<\/p>\n<p>Jagmeet Singh, the most prominent Punjabi-origin candidate, is running from Burnaby Centre this time, following the dissolution of his previous constituency.<\/p>\n<p>He has served as the leader of the NDP since 2017 and has won the MP election three times. However, polls suggest the NDP may secure fewer seats than expected in the upcoming election.<\/p>\n<p>This election is seen as decisive for Singh\u2019s political future, as he remains one of the most discussed minority leaders in Canadian politics.<\/p>\n<p>In a separate report, we will explore the key Punjabi figures in this election, major electoral issues, and a breakdown of the Canadian election process.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Toronto: Canada\u2019s general election is scheduled to be held on April 28, with recent developments significantly shifting the political landscape.
