hes a boy
He loves power and fame ... nothing else.
He’s been there since 2015. He’s had his time.
does voting no confidence really have any meaning? He is still PM
Means they have to call for elections.
good. that is a start in the right direction
I suspect he would not be calling for a vote if he thought he was going to lose.
Macron gambled and lost the parliament. It’s a sinking ship.
In the pure Westminster system, if the government loses a confidence vote, the government must resign. The sovereign (in this case the Governor General representing Chuck #3) can either offer someone else the opportunity to form a government that WON’T lose a confidence vote or, if no such person is willing, call for an election which may or may not change which party holds a majority in the Commons.
The last time a Governor General dismissed a government in a Westminster system country was in 1975, in Australia, and it caused such a fuss that it will probably never happen again.
I knew Castro’s daughter wasn’t going to resign.

It means he gets replaced as PM in every parliamentary system that I know of. In 1939, Tories remained in power, but Chamberlain was replaced with Churchill. I imagine in Canada it’s the same. I think it’s the way things go in Israel, but it has never happened to my knowledge.
That’s in Tousi’s video.
1975 was not a confidence issue and IIRC involved the Labour Government not getting a supply bill through the Senate. There was an impass and the Australian Governor-General broke it by firing the Prime Minister and appointing the opposition leader as PM with the condition that the new PM would advise the GG to dissolve both the House of Representatives and Senate (double dissolution) and have new election.
In Canada today, the issue is if the Government can keep the Confidence of House of Commons (Canada’s Senate Is not a factor). If the Liberals lose a confidence vote, then the Prime Minister will have to advise the Governor General to dissolve Parliament and call an election.
The opposition party won’t introduce the no confidence resolution unless they are CERTAIN that they have enough of the ruling party’s reps along with them to win the vote.
What’s happening here is that Trudeau’s own party has had enough of his s-—t.
Come on no confidence vote, be a bigly NO!!
