NDP MPs will look to use the retreat to strategize a new path forward ahead of the fall parliamentary session
New Democrats are huddling in Montreal to strategize a new path forward ahead of the fall parliamentary session – one that doesn’t include the Liberals at their hips and ideally makes them a credible alternative to the Conservatives at the next election.
Kathleen Monk, a former NDP strategist and director of communications for Jack Layton, said New Democrats are likely walking into the retreat feeling “energized.” “Clear priorities for us are going to be around health care, around housing, Indigenous justice, the climate crisis, the genocide in Gaza,” said McPherson, who also serves as the party’s foreign affairs critic.
As MPs gear up for the return of a traditional minority government, the NDP says it plans to decide whether it supports the Liberal government’s agenda one vote at a time. “We’re going to take every vote as it comes,” McPherson said. “We’re not going to allow Pierre Poilievre to use his shenanigans and ill behaviour within the House of Commons to push us to do anything.”
