Last Thursday the NDP gave notice of an opposition motion that will be debated today and voted upon later this week.
That motion calls on David Johnston to step aside from his role as Special Rapporteur, and would require the government to urgently establish a public commission of inquiry. Crucially, it also states that the inquiry would be led by an individual selected with unanimous support from all recognized parties in the House,
It is rare for an opposition motion to have this much importance.
I get that Mulcair may feel compelled to talk up Jaggy’s “heroics” but let’s face it the motion has no teeth and Trudeau and his Special Crony will ignore it.
