CTV: Vote on Emergencies Act becomes unofficial matter of confidence in government 

OTTAWA — With hours to go before a vote on the federal Liberals’ use of the Emergencies Act to end anti-government blockades in Ottawa and several border crossings, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said he is confident the votes are there to approve the measures. 

NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh seemed to confirm that fact midday when he said the situation is a national crisis and his party would reluctantly support the ongoing use of temporary powers under the law. 

Singh said his party would pull support as soon as it decides the measures are no longer necessary, including if remaining convoy members stopped lingering in Ottawa and near border crossings.

WNU Editor: Canada’s socialist party (the NDP) will support the government, and these draconian measures will be passed into law. 

But there is already blow-back against Prime Minister and the ruling Liberal Party. The latest poll taken after these measures were announced last week shows a massive collapse of Liberal support (link here).
