NDP leader Jagmeet Singh announced he’s ending his pact with the Liberal Party that protected Prime Minister Justin Trudeau from non-confidence votes, meaning an election could be triggered any day.
Since 2022, the governing Liberals and NDP have had a ‘Supply and Confidence’ agreement that effectively makes the Liberals’ minority government a majority, and enables them to pass / avoid passing whatever legislative bills they want, all while getting protection from non-confidence votes.
The Counter Signal’s senior editor, Kat Kanada spoke with Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre on Wednesday as he responded to this development.
In exchange, the Liberals agreed to support some of the NDP’s pet policies, such as a national dental care plan.
But Singh announced on Wednesday that “the deal is done.”
This story is breaking.
