I have been trying to mentally sort out what the purchase price for Jagmeet Singh & the NDP Party will be on March 24th, when the Canadian Parliament is allowed to actually sit again due to a procurement bill….
This was about 100 days ago…If you thought the past Parliament was dysfunctional, buckle up for 2025.

Carney & Trump got the Liberals in again, but as a minority. To survive, Carney will have to dance with the Bloc Québécois (22 seats) or cobble together support from the seven NDP MPs and Green Party veteran Elizabeth May. All three potential allies lean hard left, notably on the environment, crushing the possibility of nation-building projects like pipelines and nuclear-powered energy corridors…so we’re still screwed. A Liberal government propped up by either separatists or a coalition of eco-socialists will not sit well in Alberta, Saskatchewan, or British Columbia, if that matters.

There’s still a decade of Liberal scandals & ineptitude to bury with the help of the left leaning allies, including the most recently odorous green slush fund previous to Trudeau/Carney proroguing parliament, to just make…disappear…while printing copious amounts of money depreciating our dollar further & further. Good times.1745972233920.jpeg

He is 3 seats short of majority. NDP's 7 is more than enough and if they won't go along the Block might.

It all depends how many members are in the house when a non confidence vote is called. That is how Joe Clark lost out. He couldn't count.
Maybe we will get lucky, and one of the people digging into Carnage's background will find something chargeable.

I doubt it will be same supply & confidence. But the NDP won't want and can't afford another election so they will likely go along or at least abstain on. a vote by vote basis.
They may want to reestablish their independence . They have been lapdogs and good pets to the Liberals , the next leader should want to distance the party from Jagmet .

Does that matter anymore, with the “dial in your vote from your vacation home” COVID type voting that somehow hasn’t gone away? Much of the time Question Period Looks like you would be hard-pressed to put together enough bodies for a pick up basketball game.

Yeah…I don’t believe that matters much anymore after the last decade.

Yes, there are caught between a rock and a hard place. A convenient absence from the house during some votes may be the way out for them.

The man who ran alongside Green Party Leader Elizabeth May in the hopes of one day becoming the party's co-leader announced on Tuesday he is stepping away from his current role as her deputy.

This guys decision comes as party members have yet to approve a change to their constitution to allow for a model of co-leadership. The two ran with that intention during the party's November 2022 leadership vote.

His departure spells more uncertainty for the party, which is trying to rehabilitate its image after spending the run-up to the 2021 federal election plagued by internal fights over the leadership of former leader Annamie Paul.

The first Black woman to lead a federal party, Paul said complaints about her tenure were "racist" and "sexist." Etc…

The incompetent ones are always the first to play the race card.

I don't know anymore. They seem to change the rules whenever it suits them.

Weren’t liberals being caught on zoom calls for votes during Covid from the Caribbean? Didn’t that carry through until the present day?

Most of the time when you see Parliament, the last few years you’re lucky if you could see a dozen people (between the MP’s and the speaker) and usually less.

How much worse off would the Green Party be if it had stuck with Annamie Paul? Miles ahead imo. I hope they cut the funding.
How much funding does a single independent MP get? Isn’t that kind of what we’ve got with the entire Green Party at this point?

Oh yeah, Bloc Québécois leader Yves-François Blanchet has already said he does not intend to bring down the current government “for at least a year.” That it’s all. Nothing to see here. Move along…
