Canada elections 2025: Pro-Khalistani leader Jagmeet Singh gets emotional after defeat, quits as NDP chief; internet cheers his fall

Jagmeet Singh , the pro-Khalistan leader of Canada’s New Democratic Party (NDP), got emotional on stage as he announced his resignation following a humiliating defeat in the federal elections.


Not only did he lose his own seat, Burnaby Central, but his party also failed to secure the 12-seat minimum to retain national party status in Parliament. Singh came third in his constituency, and the NDP crashed from 24 seats to just seven.

Fighting tears, Singh said, “It’s been the honour of my life to lead the NDP... I am disappointed that we could not win more seats.” He will remain interim leader until a successor is chosen.

During his tenure, Singh openly supported Khalistani separatists, demanded a ban on India’s Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), and pressured former PM Justin Trudeau to expel Indian diplomats after the killing of Khalistani separatist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. He had even urged Canada to sanction Indian officials, the moves widely condemned in India.

New Democrats built this country.

We have built the best of Canada.

And we aren’t going anywhere.

Jagmeet Singh sold out Canada for 4 years straight and purposely destroyed his own party to prevent Pierre Poilievre from being PM.

Today he gets what he deserves.

Why didn’t you call an election last year?

Jagmeet Singh: “I refused to let Canadians choose a Conservative government.”

Translation:
“I don’t care about inflation. I don’t care about housing. I only care about my pension and my seat.” pic.twitter.com/KM0xUsY2RK

The fall of Jagmeet Singh marks a turning point in Canada’s domestic politics—and a setback for Khalistani influence in Ottawa.
