OTTAWA—NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh left Canadians guessing as to which way his party will swing in a confidence vote that could trigger a federal election during the second deadly wave of COVID-19.

Singh says New Democrats “are voting for Canadians,” but did not specify whether his party would back, oppose or abstain from voting on a Conservative motion to create a special anticorruption committee.
