Alison Creekside on Nostr: It was really embarrassing watching "progressives" & prominent journos yesterday ...
It was really embarrassing watching "progressives" & prominent journos yesterday posting that Singh tore up the confidence & supply agreement because Poilievre called him a bad name.
As it was explained to me, the argument back in June was that it made sense to promise to prop up the Libs for stability during ongoing Covid but not forever.
Also breaking it would put additional pressure on the Libs to be more receptive to things the NDP want to see passed in the next year. #cdnpoli
