NDP's rules for leadership race include requirements for youth, regional support

The NDP released the official rules for its leadership race on Friday, which include requirements that candidates gather specific numbers of signatures from supporters across regional, racial and 2SLGBTQ+ groups. At least 10 per cent of a candidate's signatures must come from New Democrats aged 25 years or under. Candidates must also collect at least 50 signatures from five different regions in Canada — the North, the Atlantic provinces, Quebec, Ontario and the Prairies and B.C. A new permanent leader to replace Jagmeet Singh will be chosen through a ranked ballot, allowing party members to list candidates in order of preference. The party announced earlier this month that candidates will be required to pay a $100,000 entry fee.
