PROCESS NERD: Neither Jagmeet Singh nor his party is seriously considering pulling the rug out from under the Liberal minority, writes kady They want to lay down a marker, even if they aren’t ready to draw a line in the sand.
Jagmeet Singh’s sternly worded warning in December was a reminder that this minority parliament, like every minority parliament, is never more than one confidence test away from collapse.Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau, left, and NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh take part in the English-language leaders’ debate in Gatineau, Que., on Sept. 9, 2021, before the federal election.
In the three and a half years since the start of the current minority era, something happens every time MPs head back to the precinct after an extended House hiatus: a sudden surge in increasingly detailed speculation that a snap election may be in the works. Sometimes, it gets rolling before the previous sitting has even wrapped up. Just days before the chamber shut down for the holidays in December, New Democrat Leader Jagmeet Singh was threatening — or, at least, threatening to threaten — to pull out of the supply-and-confidence pact between his party and the minority Liberal government, although he was careful not to go on the record with a timeline on exactly when or how such a move would occur.
There was, after all, no pending confidence vote looming over the chamber when he delivered his sternly worded warning.
