When an election is called, the New Democrats will be looking to
take back lost territory in Western Canada and once again try to
convince voters to choose orange.
N-D-P leader Jagmeet Singh says the party is looking to expand
its turf in B-C's Lower Mainland as well as in more rural parts of
the province where it goes head-to-head with Tories.
Eleven of the New Democrats' 24 incumbent candidates are based in
B-C, a province where the Liberals are also counting on gains to win
back a majority in the House of Commons.
