Party accuses Conservatives of being ‘agents of chaos’
NDP House leader Peter Julian says there’s more his party wants to do in Parliament before the next election but the current dysfunction in the House of Commons will be a factor in how the party votes on future confidence measures.
In just three weeks, two Conservative non-confidence motions have failed to bring down the government тАФ but the Opposition promises more to come.
The New Democrats have said they will decide how to vote on those motions a case-by-case basis.
Julian accused 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The government’s legislative agenda has ground to a halt as a debate over a matter of privilege has superseded most other business since Sept. 26.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.
A day after his first try failed, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has issued a new no-confidence motion to bring down the Liberal government during another raucous day in Parliament.
