NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh condemned grocery store CEOs for jacking up prices while not wearing his Rolex watch. .“CEOs have been using inflation to line their pockets with your money,” said Singh in a Thursday video. .The video shows Singh grab an apple, and he said a bag of them used to cost about $4.99. He said prices rose to $5.99 and are now at $6.99. .The NDP leader went on to say people might be wondering “who sets those prices and why does it feel like you’re getting gouged.”.Singh alleged grocery store CEOs are looking for ways to line their pockets with more money. He said the Liberals and Conservatives are allowing them to do it. .Canadians for Tax Fairness and the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives agree corporations have increased their profits by forcing people to pay more. When the NDP held a vote to hold grocery store CEOs accountable, he said “Justin Trudeau’s establishment Liberals and Pierre Poilievre’s corporate Conservatives have repeatedly chosen to protect the profits of their well-connected friends.” .Singh said this is how politicians rigged the system, taking wealth away from working class people and letting CEOs avoid paying what they owe. But he is fighting back. .“The billionaires are doing everything to protect their profits, and they’ve got their friends in Ottawa,” he said. .“But I promise you, you’ve got me.” .Rebel News British Columbia chief reporter Drea Humphrey joked about Singh not wearing his Rolex. .“I was coming to ask where your Rolex is, but it appears everyone else with common sense fails to be impressed by your monologue as well,” said Humphrey. .Independent MP Kevin Vuong said Singh should have bought a $20 Casio and put it on. .“I bought one for my BMOQ (Basic Military Officer Qualification) and it’s still going strong!” said Vuong. .Singh produced a video while wearing his Rolex on Saturday, saying he supported workers rising up against corporations. .“The Conservative and billionaire agenda has taken a huge hit,” he said. .“Working people have sent them a wake-up call.”
