New Democrats will not cave to demands from the Bloc Québécois and Conservative leaders to help them bring down the Liberal government, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh said on Wednesday.

The Liberal caucus turned its attention to the party's plan for the next election on Wednesday, after an unsuccessful attempt by some MPs to oust Prime Minister Justin Trudeau last week.

Bloc Leader Yves-François Blanchet set the deadline last month, putting the Liberals on notice that to avoid an election "before Christmas" they must adopt a pair of private member's bills.

Liberal MP Sean Casey is the first to publicly confirm that he has signed a letter calling on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to resign, arguing it would be in the best interests of the country to let someone else take the reins.

Our political leaders must either tax carbon “or” regulate technologies. They don’t have to do both.

Canada's decision to expel New Delhi's top envoy and five other diplomats is front-page news in India, as an analyst wonders how other countries will respond.

Now that TMX is complete, the question of who should bear the brunt of the project’s cost overruns is making the rounds on Parliament Hill.

The Liberals will have to find ways to balance NDP and Bloc demands and expectations while navigating promises of fiscal responsibility, appealing to younger voters, and not falling into Conservative traps.

Politics used to be about attracting the best and brightest to the challenge of public service. Now, some of its practitioners seem determined to scare them off.

With a federal election looming, Liberals are claiming the high ground on climate change and accusing the NDP of caving to Conservative disinformation. It's a clear preview of what's to come.

The planned votes from the Bloc and the New Democrats eliminate the possibility of a snap election, buying the Liberals more time to govern after a raucous start to the fall sitting of Parliament.

It now appears that chance will come on Sept. 24, the first date opposition parties can introduce motions, including those declaring non-confidence in the government.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has suffered another devastating byelection blow with the loss of a second Liberal stronghold, this one to the Bloc Québécois in LaSalle—Émard—Verdun.

This is apparently how the carbon tax ends in Canada: not with a bang but a surrender. Last week, B.C. Premier David Eby acknowledged his government wouldn’t maintain the province’s long-standing consumer carbon tax — one that predates the federal version by a decade — if a future federal government eliminates its own.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre signaled the Liberals' carbon price and the economy will remain his prime target when Parliament resumes this week.
