Скачать или смотреть Carney Liberals survive first confidence vote of budget

Prime Minister Mark Carney’s minority Liberal government survived the first in a series of confidence votes connected to the 2025 federal budget on Thursday night.

By a vote of 198 to 139, Liberal, NDP, Bloc Quebecois and Green MPs defeated an attempt by the Conservatives to reject Finance Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne’s economic plans.

With their now-defeated sub-amendment, Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives were calling on the House to “reject the government’s budget,” as instead of presenting “an affordable budget,” the Tories claimed the government “presented a budget that fails to consider that every dollar the Liberal government spends comes out of the pockets of Canadians in the form of higher taxes and inflation.”

It went on to list concerns over the size of the deficit, the industrial carbon tax, the cost of government and the absence of any plan for new oil and gas pipelines.
