The Conservative Party and the Bloc Québécois say they will not support the Liberal government’s new federal budget, narrowing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s options to keep his minority government afloat.
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre called the budget “an inflationary plan” and said his party cannot back what he described as a costly proposal. He said Conservatives wanted a budget that would make life more affordable for Canadians and announced plans to introduce an amendment aimed at restoring affordability.
With both the Conservatives and Bloc Québécois opposed, the Liberals now depend on the New Democratic Party (NDP) to pass the budget. The NDP has not yet confirmed its position but has indicated it is open to supporting the bill to avoid triggering a federal election in 2025.
