They want to force the Bloc to follow up with its threats? Will the Bloc follow?

But the block is having its opposition days this week right? So they would have to call their bluff and put up a confidence vote now rather than the deadline they had given?

Now it is up to Jagmeet to decide if wants an election or not. The Bloc and CPC don’t have enough MPs to force a no confidence vote.
What will he do? He is caught between a rock and a hard place, calling an election means NDP are going to lose seats, but not calling one shows voters NDP are keeping an extremely unpopular government in power.

Bloc better be regretting not voting against Liberals on their non-confidence vote

Thank god. I’ll give the Libs the tiny amount of credit they’re due for not folding to this insane demand on order to secure their death grip onto power for a few more months. Jagmeet will probably just keep supporting them anyways.

I’m very impressed that they are standing up and refusing to be bullied.
I think this is the right call and I am glad they made it.

We are getting to George Constanza at PlayNow Industries level of refusal to leave with Trudeau now

The Bloc has a chance today to send a message as there will be a confidence vote for the capital gains tax grab.

OAS is projected to cost the Canadian taxpayers $100 billion/year by 2028. The largest expense in the federal government’s budget, even larger than interest on their debt or healthcare transfers.

Increasing it is a nonstarter.
Elections back on the menu boys!
Looks like we’re heading to the polls!
