I fully agree. They lost by going quasi-centrist. The Liberals will always own that space, should they want it. The NDP probably doesn't have a great chance at forming government outside of a minority situation no matter what, but if they want to be relevant and increase their seat total, they need to consider the type of issues that are electrifying progressives elsewhere- Sanders, Corbyn, in particular provide a path toward increasing their support, although I doubt that support would ever equate to nearly 40% of the vote.
