MPs return to a more volatile Parliament

Power & Politics

Sept. 16, 2024 - Parliamentarians returned to the House of Commons today for the fall sitting. The minority Liberal government no longer has the support of the NDP after the termination of the supply-and-confidence deal, a shift that could open the door for an early election. P&P hears from Government House leader Karina Gould about the new dynamics of the House. Plus, NDP House leader Peter Julian and Bloc Quebecois heritage critic Martin Champoux discuss where their parties stand on supporting the Liberal government in a non-confidence vote. And we keep an eye on two key federal byelections happening tonight in Montreal and Winnipeg.
