The prime minister was asked if he’ll pursue a governing pact with the NDP. “No,” he said.
And why not, the reporter asked.
“Why?” Carney retorted.
The PM said the Liberals campaigned on a clear set of objectives, and while they didn’t quite get a majority, “we will be putting forth legislation that’s consistent with our platform.”
I think carney wants policy to speak for itself and parties and mps to vote balanced between how their party and their riding expects them to. I hope it helps stir up the us vs them mentalities and make mps vote a little more independently from their party.
