The 45th Canadian Parliament officially began on May 26. There are already some early signs that it may not last very long.
Prime Minister Mark Carney and the Liberals suffered an embarrassing defeat in a June 2 vote in the House of Commons. Conservative interim leader Andrew Scheer’s sub-amendment to the throne speech, which called for a “firm commitment” to present a spring economic statement or budget “that incorporates measures aimed at unleashing Canada’s economic potential,” passed by a vote of 166-164.
I hope so.
