NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh says his party will bring forward a motion of non-confidence to bring down the Trudeau government in the next sitting of the House of Commons.

“The Liberals don’t deserve another chance,” Singh wrote in a letter on Friday. “That’s why the NDP will vote to bring this government down.”

    Parliament doesn’t sit until Jan 26, so it won’t happen before then.

      First sitting on the 27th, to be exact. Source.

      Yeah, I’m panicking a lot less now. And depending on the exact rules JT could prorogue it even further.

      Somebody in the media mentioned a Liberal leadership election; if he goes that way I’ll be “kalm” again.

        A Liberal leadership convention would require ~4-5 months. The Liberals would name an interim leader elected by caucus if JT steps down.
