Just one day into Joe Biden’s presidency, Jagmeet Singh is using his new policies to roast the Canadian prime minister.

Around 24 hours after the U.S. president’s inauguration, Singh took to social media to make a comparison between the two leaders.

Via Twitter, the NDP leader wrote, “Day 1 of his presidency: Joe Biden puts a pause on student loan payments with an interest rate of 0%.”

He went on, “The second wave of the pandemic: Justin Trudeau breaks his promise to students and refuses to do the same.”

Singh’s comments come as the new president made several big moves within his first few hours in the White House.

This included cancelling the Keystone XL pipeline, rejoining the Paris Climate Agreement and extending a pause on student loan repayments.

He even had time to redecorate the Oval Office on Wednesday!

Across the border, many students in Canada are still required to repay their student loan debts and some have been asked to return the Canada Emergency Student Benefit (CESB), too.
