BREAKING: Pierre Poilievre pledges to put forth non-confidence motion ASAP, challenges Jagmeet Singh to commit to vote against Trudeau government

Poilievre challenged both the NDP and Bloc Quebecois to support the motion. “It's put up or shut up time for the NDP,” Poilievre said to reporters on Wednesday.

NDP leader Jagmeet Singh has been vague about when he plans to vote against the Trudeau government, saying at a news conference that he will assess the situation on a “case by case basis”

Before the NDP pulled out of the agreement, Poilievre issued a public letter to NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh at the end of August, daring him to call it quits with Trudeau and force a fall election. The next planned election is not until October 2025.

Speaking to reporters in Ottawa on Wednesday, Poilievre demanded that Singh and asked the NDP to commit “unequivocally” to support a non-confidence vote. “Will they vote non-confidence to bring down the costly coalition and trigger a carbon tax election, or will Jagmeet Singh sell out Canadians again?” Poilievre said.

When asked about Poilievre’s statements Wednesday, Singh said he will “never” listen to the Conservative leader, according to CTV.“I'm not going to say our decision ahead of time,” Singh told reporters. “We will look at the votes and we'll make a determination of what's the best interest of Canadians. Unlike Pierre Poilievre, who wants to play games, we actually want to get things done for Canadians.”
