Poilievre’s response in House draws rebuke from Speaker Greg Fergus, who suspended Question Period briefly to call for decorum.
New Democratic Party leader Jagmeet Singh rises during Question Period in the House of Commons in Ottawa on Sept. 19. NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh says his party will vote against a Conservative non-confidence motion next week, allowing the Liberal government to survive with the help of both the NDP and the Bloc Québécois.Mr. Singh said pharmacare legislation is still before the Senate and has not been passed into law.
The NDP Leader announced two weeks ago through a campaign-style video that he had “ripped up” the supply-and-confidence agreement between his party and the Liberals, which saw NDP MPs vote to keep the Liberals in power in exchange for action on NDP priorities. He said Mr. Singh put out a “Hollywood production” during the by-election campaign to announce that he had torn up the NDP deal with the Liberals.
The PQ is currently leading Mr. Legault’s Coalition Avenir Québéc party in polls. The CAQ has been in power since 2018.Mr. Poilievre raised Mr. Legault’s criticism of the Bloc Thursday in Question Period, accusing Mr. Blanchet of abandoning Quebeckers.
