The Federal NDP is gone, what's next?

The Federal NDP is down to 5 seats; they're irrelevant politically. I was happy that Jagmeet did the honourable thing by resigning as party leader after the bloodbath. Unlike Polievre.
So what's next for progressive, left-of-center politics in Canada? Will the NDP rebuild? Will a new left-of-center party emerge? Have all the NDP voters permanently moved to the Liberals?

No, and they never will be at home there. pp is so unpopular as to be radioactive and as a result those who can't stand the liberals will jump ship to the NDP in droves as it is the only viable federal political option IF the NDP manage to have a leader with a seat in the house in the next 6 months. They will attempt to hijack the NDP just as the progressive conservatives were taken over by maple maga via the grass roots and flooding memberships.
