Description

The House has passed the Liberal budget in a confidence vote that could have triggered another election — but it succeeded only because four MPs didn't vote, shrinking the number of votes needed for majority support. Follow the drama as it unfolded live on Power & Politics, with Green Party Leader Elizabeth May explaining why she was the only non-Liberal MP to vote in favour of the document. Plus, Newfoundland and Labrador Premier Tony Wakeham explains what he advocated for as premiers spoke with Prime Minister Mark Carney today.
