Bloc House Leader on Special Committee Motion, Potential Election
Bloc Québécois House leader Alain Therrien speaks with reporters on Parliament Hill ahead of a meeting of his party’s caucus. He discusses the upcoming vote on the motion from the Conservative party calling for the House of Commons to create a special committee. This committee would consolidate multiple parliamentary investigations into the WE affair, as well as examine other potential conflicts of interest within the federal government. Therrien reiterates that his party will vote for the motion, which the Liberals are making a question of confidence in the government and say would lead to a snap election.
