I guess the NDP will decide if we have a fall election
I also have to wonder if current polling windfall will factor into that decision

We’ll see for sure, but it doesn’t surprise if it’s really off the table. Raising OAS further goes against their whole “generational fairness” idea they’ve been pushing. The bloc’s demands put them between a rock and a hard place.

I really have to hand it to the Bloc on this one, they picked an excellent wedge issue. I doubt the NDP bite though given their financial state, but we’ll see.

This will put Singh in the hot seat. I bet he was gambling the Bloc would prop up Trudeau up. Singh thought he would get to “rip up the agreement” and still avoid an election. If the bloc votes non confidence Singh would be left claiming no confidence while propping up the liberals. Any credibility he has left will be gone.
