Leader of the Federal NDP, Jagmeet Singh shared his views on important political issues, on Connect FM's 'Sver Wala Show' this morning.

Singh says that Public Services and Procurement Canada is a highly capable agency, and government should have undertaken the responsibility of administering Canada Student Service Grant on their own instead of giving it away to WE Charity.

He says if substantial relevant evidence emerges out of the WE Charity probe, then police should also investigate the issue.

About Canada's China policy, he agreed with government's decision to not swap Meng Wanzhou for the two Michaels arrested in China since December, 2018.
