A Conservative MP is giving up his seat to allow Pierre Poilievre to run in a byelection after Prime Minister Mark Carney said he’d be ready to call one 'as soon as possible.'
What kind of calculus do you think the liberal party has done just now
Carney’s response to the byelection question was basicailly “He can have his byelection if he wants. I’m too busy with more important things to waste time with silly partisan games”
Which makes sense. No need to hand the conservatives a "see the liberals are blocking democracy’ talking point.
Except everyone knows the cons will obstruct everything and blockade the work of parliament and committee work - that is who they are. I am really curious to see how the liberals under Carney combat that sort of filibustering that cons did for the past few years.
