  • The Liberals are set to face a third Conservative non-confidence vote in the House of Commons on Monday, but the government is likely to survive with the support of the NDP.

The Liberal government, led by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, survived its third non-confidence vote brought forward by the Conservative opposition in the Canadian House of Commons. The vote, which took place on a Wednesday, was part of a series of attempts by the Conservatives to challenge the government's stability. The motion was defeated with a vote of 204 to 116, ensuring the continuation of the Liberal government. This particular vote was centered around the government's handling of the carbon tax, with the Conservatives arguing that the Liberals have lost the confidence of the House due to their economic policies. Despite the defeat, the opposition continues to scrutinize the government's policies and performance.
