UPDATED: Singh eyes chance to ramp up pressure on Trudeau with byelection win cdnpoli

"We danced the night away," Singh said Tuesday morning in an interview as his party breathed a collective sigh of relief following a win in the federal riding of Burnaby South.

"It allows me to ramp up the pressure on Mr. Trudeau, on the Liberal government and allows me to really put into focus the question 'Is this Liberal government more interested in helping their well-connected, powerful friends like SNC-Lavalin?"' Mulcair's victory helped the party build support in the province that resulted in the NDP clenching official Opposition status for the first time in its history during the 2011 election.

For his part, Trudeau took to Twitter this morning to welcome the newest member of his team, Rachel Bendayan.

His term in office may be very short lived! He does strike me as a national leader.

theJagmeetSingh is STILL irrelevant no matter this election. He needs to understand that before making a fool of himself

A well-deserved win for NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh. I always had confidence that he would earn the trust & support of Burnaby South voters.

Cool. For about the thirtieth time, are you going to report on him illegally showing up at a polling station and then being asked to leave?

Jogmeat will be an afterthought

Does he even know what the NDP policies are? I am guessing, not 100% though, that their support for Maduro in Venezuela is a losing platform!

Good luck Jagmeet your going to need it.
