Poilievre called for the other opposition parties to vote non-confidence in the government when the House of Commons resumes next month.

Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland, when asked about Poilievre香蕉视频直播檚 call for an election at a press conference in Toronto, defended her party香蕉视频直播檚 economic record, saying inflation remains within the Bank of Canada香蕉视频直播檚 target rate.

香蕉视频直播淚 want to conclude by reminding people of the fundamental hypocrisy at the heart of what we have been hearing from the Conservative leader today,香蕉视频直播 she said.

香蕉视频直播淭he Conservatives, I think, are showing how fundamentally self-centered they are 香蕉视频直播 all they care about is themselves and their party. They are seeing this good news for Canadians, (and) they are seeing it as bad news for themselves.香蕉视频直播

Poilievre also sent a letter Thursday to New Democrat Leader Jagmeet Singh, urging him to pull out of the party香蕉视频直播檚 confidence-and-supply agreement with the Liberals.

The NDP entered a deal with the Liberals in 2022, agreeing to keep the minority government in power until June 2025 in exchange for movement on key priorities.

New Democrats have used the agreement to push forward initiatives such as dental care and pharmacare, which would provide free diabetes medicine and birth control.

At the press conference, Poilievre wouldn香蕉视频直播檛 say whether a future Conservative government would maintain those programs, but said his party香蕉视频直播檚 platform will be released once an election is called.

In a statement in response to questions about Poilievre香蕉视频直播檚 letter, NDP House leader Peter Julian accused the Tories of wanting to cut programs and said the party fundamentally disagrees with those plans.

香蕉视频直播淟eaving the deal is always on the table for Jagmeet Singh,香蕉视频直播 Julian said.

He added that Poilievre wants to 香蕉视频直播渆nsure pharmacare cannot make it to implementation this fall.香蕉视频直播

Legislation that sets the groundwork for a future national pharmacare program passed through the House of Commons last spring and is at the committee stage in the Senate.

If the bill becomes law, it would also allow the health minister to negotiate with provinces and territories to implement federal coverage for certain diabetes and contraceptive medications and supplies.
