NDP and Bloc to Block Conservative Non-Confidence Motion, Preventing Early Election

Jagmeet Singh and Yves-François Blanchet confirm their parties will vote against the motion, ensuring the Liberal government remains in power for now.

NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh and Bloc Québécois Leader Yves-François Blanchet have announced they will vote against the Conservative non-confidence motion set for next Wednesday.
The decision by the NDP and Bloc eliminates the possibility of a snap election, allowing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's Liberal government to continue governing.
Singh emphasized that opposing the motion does not equate to supporting the Liberals, criticizing Trudeau for letting Canadians down.
Blanchet stated his party's opposition to the Conservatives is driven by Quebec's interests, not by support for the Liberals, and he demands increased pensions and more control over immigration for Quebec.
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre accused Singh of political theatrics, claiming Singh's actions are motivated by personal gain rather than genuine opposition to the Liberal government.
