the ndp are famous in canada for running on great platforms, and then not carrying through with any of it - or even doing the exact opposite.
rae won primarily on universal auto insurance, which never happened.
the 2015 election aside, where the liberals and ndp switched roles, the liberals usually run less flashy and more realistic campaigns, then tend to actually follow through with it.
so, you need to be constantly weighing that out.
but, the ndp will not do anything in their platform; they never do.
