OTTAWA — NDP House leader Peter Julian says there's more his party wants to do in Parliament before the next election, but the current dysfunction continues it will become a factor in how they vote on a confidence measure.
In just three weeks, two Conservative non-confidence motions have failed to bring down the government — but the Opposition promises more to come.Julian accuses the Conservatives of being"agents of chaos" in the House of Commons. The government's legislative agenda has ground to a halt as a debate over a matter of privilege has superseded most other business since Sept. 26.
Conservative House leader Andrew Scheer says the state of affairs was"self-inflicted" by the Liberals, and it will continue until the government hands over documents related to the misspending of public funds.
