The House Of Commons just voted NO CONFIDENCE in the Government. And the Liberals have set up a constitutional crisis. Never before in Canadian history has a government of the day refused to resign when it lost a formal vote of no confidence in the House. "Procedural motion" my ass!

They are taking their cues from American Dems.

You're right. To not resign under these circumstances is an unprecedented statement by the Liberals that they are entitled to power.

They will take down the Canadian Constitution if they have to in an effort to retain power.

It was a cross-party vote of "No Confidence." How could you accept the challenge of such a vote but then dismiss the results when you lose? "Procedural motion?!?!?!" --- it was a vote of "NO CONFIDENCE!!!!!"

So the libs have imploded ... many of us saw it coming. The fact that they won't accept it should nail their coffin shut.
