They’re not outright rejecting it. This is the word salad that Freeland used in her press conference today:

Surprising.
I figured the Liberals would just capitulate and drag this out as long as possible. Maybe the election happens sooner than I thought.
How they “appear” to reject it? It’s a pretty clear binary choice; accept the demand or don’t.
The liberals got to used to having the NDP hump its leg non-stop, this is an actual party that will follow through on threats.
The Liberals would lose terrain in Quebec to the Bloc Québécois. Mainstreet’s latest panel would have the **Bloc Québécois** as the official opposition, which wouldn’t please the Liberals.
Liberals won’t do the Bloc any favor.
