Conservatives say Singh won’t help topple Trudeau government until after he qualifies for pension in late February

From LifeSiteNews
Conservatives remain skeptical about attempts to oust the current government in early 2025.
New Democratic Party (NDP) leader Jagmeet Singh says he will bring forth a motion to topple Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government after the new year.
In a Friday statement on social media, Singh wrote, “No matter who is leading the Liberal Party, this government’s time is up.”
“We will put forward a clear motion of non-confidence in the next sitting of the House of Commons.”
Singh argued that the Trudeau Liberals “don’t deserve another chance” in governing Canada and that “Canadians can come together and build a country where we take better care of each other.”
“A country where we create good jobs. Stand up to the threats of Trump’s tariffs,” he said, adding, “and where everyone has a chance to succeed. I will be working hard to build a movement that can win in the next election.”
Singh’s sudden promise to topple to Trudeau government comes after now-former Minister of Finance Chrystia Freeland resigned suddenly earlier this week. Her resignation sent shockwaves through Ottawa’s inner political circles and increased calls from all parties, Liberals included, for Trudeau to step down.
Freeland resigned after Trudeau asked her to step down as finance minister and move into a different position.
Her public resignation letter blasted Trudeau’s economic direction and apparent lack of willingness to work as a team player with the nation’s premiers.
MPs will not return to parliament until January 27, meaning a vote of non-confidence, which already has the support of the Conservatives and Bloc Quebecois, could happen any time after that date.
It should be noted Singh’s NDP had in place a confidence agreement with the Liberals that was discarded in September. However, that did not stop the party from propping up Trudeau.
Speculation has been that Singh is waiting until the end of February to pull the full support of Trudeau so that he can qualify for this government MP pension. Since 2021, when the Liberals won a minority government, Singh’s NDP has voted confidence in Trudeau 286 times.
Conservative leader calls for emergency recall of Parliament to force confidence vote
Reaction to Singh’s promise to topple the Liberals was met with tepid response from political pundits, MPs, and others.
“Will believe it when I see it,” Alberta political commentator Cory Morgan wrote.
Conservative Party of Canada (CPC) leader Pierre Poilievre was not buying Singh’s sudden reversal of support for Trudeau, noting he won’t do so until he gets his pension.
“Now that Parliament is closed and there is no chance to introduce any motion for months — until after you get your pension. You did the same stunt in September, claiming you’d no longer prop Trudeau up,” Poilievre wrote on X.
“Then you went back on your word and voted 8 times AGAINST AN ELECTION & for your boss Trudeau. Just 11 days ago you voted against a non-confidence motion filled with your own words. Had you voted the other way, we’d be almost half-way through the election now. Only common sense Conservatives can and will replace this costly NDP-Liberal clown show.”
He also asked the Governor General to “urgently reconvene parliament” and require a “non-confidence vote.”
Canadian freedom lawyer Eva Chipiuk observed on X that the NDP has “kept this government in power well past its best before date, now they want to be congratulated for solving the problem they created in the first place.”
“I hope people see through your hypocrisy and get engaged so we can be rid of useless and self interest elected officials once and for all,” she added.
The most recent polls show a Conservative government under Poilievre would win a super majority were an election held today.
As reported by LifeSiteNews, the Liberals were hoping to delay the 2025 federal election by a few days in what many see as a stunt to secure pensions for MPs who are projected to lose their seats. Approximately 80 MPs would qualify for pensions should they sit as MPs until at least October 27, 2025, which is the newly proposed election date. The date as it stands now is set for October 20.

Improve competitiveness, end capital gains tax hike immediately

The Canadian Taxpayers Federation is calling on Finance Minister Dominic LeBlanc to end the capital gains tax hike following Liberal leadership front-runner Mark Carney’s commitment to reverse the tax increase.
“The government’s capital gains tax hike is a big sign telling entrepreneurs to set up shop in other countries before next year,” said Franco Terrazzano, CTF Federal Director. “Every candidate with a shot at becoming prime minister says they will scrap the capital gains tax hike, so LeBlanc needs to end it now.
“Especially with a looming trade war, the easiest way for the government to make Canada’s economy more competitive is by immediately ending the capital gains tax hike.”
LeBlanc announced that the government is postponing enforcement of the capital gains tax increase from June 25, 2024, to Jan. 1, 2026.
Today, Carney announced he would reverse the capital gains tax increase if he becomes prime minister. The other Liberal leadership front-runner, Chrystia Freeland, also promises to reverse the tax increase. Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre says he would reverse the capital gains tax increase.
A recent report from the C.D. Howe Institute shows the capital gains tax hike will result in more than 400,000 fewer jobs and shrink Canada’s GDP by nearly $90 billion.
The Tax Foundation’s 2024 International Tax Competitiveness Index ranked Canada 31st out 38 Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development countries on individual tax competitiveness, and 26th on business tax competitiveness. Weaknesses of Canada’s tax system include taxing capital gains “well above” the OECD average.
“Canada couldn’t afford the capital gains tax hike before and we definitely can’t afford the $90-billion hole it will blow through Canada’s economy now,” Terrazzano said. “LeBlanc must improve Canada’s competitiveness by ending the capital gains tax hike now.”
The CTF launched a legal challenge to stop the Canada Revenue Agency from enforcing the tax hike without parliamentary approval. The CTF’s legal application argues that enforcing the tax increase violates the rule of law and is unconstitutional.
Digital ID
Trudeau government claims digital ID system would remain ‘optional’

From LifeSiteNews
A briefing note from members of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s cabinet claims that a national digital ID system is “easier” and “more securer” than traditional identification, but insists it will remain “optional.”
According to Blacklock’s Reporter, an October 30, 2024 briefing note titled Digital Credentials Issue And Verify Request For Information, said that “Digital credentials support a quicker, easier, safer, more secure and more cost effective way to access services digitally,” and that their implementation “would allow the Government of Canada to offer the use of digital credentials on an optional basis”
The contents of the briefing note come after federal regulators previously disclosed they are working on digital credentials for Canadians despite the fact MPs have repeatedly rejected the proposal over safety concerns, as reported by LifeSiteNews.
Shared Services Canada, a federal IT department, is developing “digital credentials” for things like Social Insurance Numbers, the Canadian equivalent of America’s Social Services number, which one needs to work legally.
The October 30, 2024 note is dated just two days after Shared Services Canada had disclosed to contractors that it was “working to establish digital credentials” for the public.
On the other hand, the Conservative Party has repeatedly warned Canadians about “mandatory digital ID” systems. While the Trudeau government insists this program will be optional, Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre has promised to introduce a new bill that would “expressly prohibit” digital IDs in Canada.
Poilievre is also opposed to a federal digital dollar, plans for which are currently on hold.
Digital IDs and similar systems have long been pushed by globalist groups like the World Economic Forum under the guise of ease of access or security.
However, critics have warned that with a “digital ID, there is no public consensus, only collusion,” and that the purpose of such a system is to eliminate “choice” in favor of “coercion and contradiction to confuse our cognition towards total control.”
