Mr. Speaker, my colleague mentioned the Bloc Québécois's ultimatum. It is October 29. When the leader of the Bloc Québécois mentioned this in question period earlier, my colleague's leader looked very happy. All the Conservative Party has to do is move a motion of non-confidence in this government and the Bloc Québécois will support it.
However, Parliament is paralyzed because of this question of privilege. The Conservative Party is preventing itself from moving a non-confidence motion. I am wondering what the Conservatives' strategy really is. Are they really prepared to trigger a carbon tax election, as they say every day here in the House? Why do they not do so by putting an end to this question of privilege?
