Federal NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh has been acclaimed as the candidate in Burnaby South.
Singh says the climate crisis has been ``ravaging'' communities across Canada, while Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has presided over the purchase of the Trans Mountain pipeline and rising national emissions after the Paris climate agreement.
He says he would normally encourage people to give money to help get New Democrats elected, but given the destructive wildfires burning across B-C's southern Interior, he encouraged donations to firefighting and relief efforts.
Earlier in the day, Singh visited Novo Textiles in neighbouring Coquitlam -- the first Canadian company to manufacture N-95 masks.
