What they have now done, through backroom deals and who knows what else, is manufacture a majority government. Their first order of business is not to try to do something to help Canadians, but it is to radically stack committees with Liberal members of Parliament.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9276389\" data-originallang=\"en\">We believe in more transparency, more oversight and more accountability for the government, and that is exactly what we are going to continue to push for in opposition, even if the government is about to make our job much more difficult.</p>",

C'est maintenant \u00e0 coups d'ententes en coulisses et de Dieu sait quoi d'autre qu'ils en cr\u00e9ent un.
