The party had been willing to keep voting alongside the Liberals in exchange for enacting two of the Bloc’s key priorities by the Tuesday deadline
Bloc Quebecois Leader Yves-Francois Blanchet speaks with reporters before Question Period, in Ottawa, Oct. 22, 2024. Mr. Blanchet announced Tuesday that his party will work toward bringing down the minority Liberal government.“We can say the government’s days are numbered,” he told reporters on Parliament Hill.
The governing Liberals appeared unconcerned by the passing deadline and threat, with one cabinet minister calling it an artificial ultimatum and Liberal House Leader Karina Gould saying talks continue. The Bloc and Conservatives don’t have enough votes between them alone to bring down the Liberals, and they would need the New Democrats to back any non-confidence play.
