This month, Canadians will flock to the polls in the federal election. And while Canadian politics are perhaps not as obsessively followed by pop culture figures outside of our country, Rihanna has apparently taken interest in one candidate. Specifically, she just followed NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh on Instagram.

Rihanna, of course, has one hell of a ratio on the social media service, only following 1,406 people against her 75.8 million followers. While the move doesn't exactly suggest she's endorsing the NDP, it's certainly a step in that direction.
