The federal NDP leader is in Hamilton for a series of events on Friday. Jagmeet Singh is meeting with everyone from post-secondary students to steelworkers and retirees.

Singh started his day with a visit to the MANA plant on Burlington Street where employees have been locked out since 2013.

He’s also visited with students at McMaster University and taken part in a roundtable discussion on Pharmacare, promoting his party’s support for a system that “covers every Canadian.”

Singh’s vision of a national cycling strategy will be another topic of discussion during a late afternoon bike ride in the downtown core.
