The Numbers: No Election for Now, but for How Long?
Hide behind the curtains all you want, Eric and Philippe deconstruct the latest polls in this new episode of The Numbers.
It wasn’t entirely clear how the budget was going to get passed, but it did indeed get passed on Monday night thanks to the abstentions of a few Conservative and NDP MPs. So, that means Canadians won’t be called to the polls over the holidays.
But the clock on this minority parliament continues to count down. How long can it really last?
This week on The Numbers, Eric and Philippe discuss what happened with the budget vote on Monday and what it tells us about the timing of the next federal election.
We also chat about some new polling numbers, including both at the federal level and provincially out of New Brunswick and Quebec, as well as about an upcoming byelection in Prince Edward Island.
