Singh says he could abandon deal to support Liberals if PM doesn’t take action on health crisis

The New Democrats are ready to withdraw from the confidence-and-supply agreement they signed with the Liberals if there is no federal action to address the health-care crisis, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh said Monday.

The deal reached in March committed the NDP to supporting the minority government on key votes in the House of Commons to avoid triggering an election before 2025. In exchange, the Liberals have promised to make progress on a number of NDP priorities, including health care.
