Do members remember when the NDP leader said he was going to rip up his supply and confidence deal? That was just a stunt for the <a data-HoCid=\"311568\" href=\"/politicians/leila-dance/\" title=\"Leila Dance\">Elmwood\u2014Transcona</a> by-election.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8777518\" data-originallang=\"en\">As it turns out, the <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">Prime Minister</a> names the tune, and the <a data-HoCid=\"278714\" href=\"/politicians/jagmeet-singh/\" title=\"Jagmeet Singh\">NDP leader</a> is happy to sing along. The NDP leader was happy to sing along to the tune of doubling housing costs. The NDP leader was happy to sing along to letting dangerous criminals out on bail. The NDP leader was happy to sing along to the tune of driving food bank use to an all-time high, leading to two million visits in just one month. The NDP leader is going to sing along to the tune of quadrupling the carbon tax, which will drive up the cost of gas, groceries and home heating.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8777519\" data-originallang=\"en\">Will the NDP <a data-HoCid=\"278714\" href=\"/politicians/jagmeet-singh/\" title=\"Jagmeet Singh\">leader</a> start singing his own tune and finally vote non-confidence so that Conservatives can axe the tax, build the homes, fix the budget and stop the crime, or will the NDP leader sing along with the Liberals, so that the <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">Prime Minister</a> gets the power, he gets his pension and Canadians get the bill?</p>",

Les d\u00e9put\u00e9s se souviennent-ils quand le chef du NPD a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 qu'il allait d\u00e9chirer l'entente de soutien et de confiance?

Il s'est content\u00e9 de suivre au sujet du doublement du co\u00fbt du logement. Le chef du NPD s'est content\u00e9 de suivre pour ce qui est de laisser les dangereux criminels en libert\u00e9 sous caution. Le chef du NPD s'est content\u00e9 de suivre pour ce qui est de faire grimper le recours aux banques alimentaires \u00e0 des niveaux record, soit 2 millions de visites en un mois seulement. Le chef du NPD va se contenter de suivre en ce qui concerne le quadruplement de la taxe sur le carbone, ce qui va faire grimper le prix du carburant, du panier d'\u00e9picerie et du chauffage domestique. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8777519\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le <a data-HoCid=\"278714\" href=\"/politicians/jagmeet-singh/\" title=\"Jagmeet Singh\">chef</a> du NPD pourrait-il enfin faire preuve d'initiative et refuser sa confiance au gouvernement, afin que les conservateurs puissent abolir la taxe, construire des logements, redresser le budget et faire \u00e9chec au crime, ou est-ce qu'il va simplement suivre les lib\u00e9raux afin qu'il obtienne sa pension, que le <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">premier ministre</a> obtienne le pouvoir et que les Canadiens n'obtiennent qu'une facture?</p>"
