Yep lives outside of town. From I gather he med pensioned off and uses his spare time to help other mil pensioners get their claims approved, that and rail against PP. When you call him on something he freaks out.

Nope…nice try 2/3 of Ontario Liberal MPs…
Doesn’t matter…El Jefe no va anywhero unless he wants to.
By the Constitution of the Liberal Party of Canada, Part M, Section 44, Sub-section b: an incumbent leader only ceases to be leader following a ‘Leadership Triggering Event.’
Trudeau had previous elements of recall or removal in the LPC Constitution removed…

Pere had a much strong sense of national identity; none of his son's 'post nation state' frippery. His sense of national identity had some extremes, such as the National Energy Plan and his response to the October Crisis, and strong stances win you strong supporters and strong enemies.
Unfortunately, that sense of nationalism didn't extend to the military.
He also brought in some decent law reforms like 'the state has no business in the nation's bedrooms' but I can't remember if that was as PM or Justice Minister and, as we all know, the Charter and a repatriated Constitution.
He had a haughty, some would call arrogant, air about him which rubbed people.

His idea of "national identity" started in Rimouski, ended in Dryden, and vehemently opposed anything that resembled a reference to the Crown.
It was an expense that got in the way of social reforms. One seemingly imposed by external entitites (NATO, The U.S., the UN). Sound familiar?
I can't fault him for legal reform or repatriation of the Constitution. I would fault him highly for the Official Languages Act, that was a heavy-handed solution to a very secular problem.
My father once referred to PET as an asshole who was sometimes right, mostly wrong, but never shut up about being right.
He referred to PMJT as the idiot son of an asshole with a punchable face.
Dad never was much for political discussion....

From a short on the street interview with Singh yesterday, he said he will bring down the Trudeau government.
Does that mean the two CPC, one BQ motions the NDP will abstain from voting, thus the NDP motion will pass and Singh will brag how he brought down the government?
If this is Singh's plan, he is really, really stupid.

Myself as well.
I jumped the gun a little. I'm always curious when people appear to hold Poilievre and Trudeau in the same tier.
Like they're both pretty much the same even after Trudeaus 9 years of lies, hidden agendas, foreign interference, billions missing, and so on.

I wont hesitate to turn around on PP and the CPC if they are as lame duck as the current Gov.
They, the CPC, have a real opportunity to move the country in a different and positive direction with a massive majority mandate. If they squander it, they deserve the losses they get, and they don't deserve my vote.

If PP and the CPC mess things up, there won’t really be a Canada left. We are that close to the brink, IMHO.
It’s not clear to me exactly how soon after resumption a confidence vote could be triggered.

Back in September Singh said that the supply and confidence arrangement was over and done. So I'd take any of his words with a grain of salt.

There absolutely is a mechanism.
The PM serves at the pleasure of the GG on the understanding that he or she has the support of the majority of the House of Commons. Conventionally that individual comes with the backing of a party.
Ultimately the fate of the PM rests with the House of Commons and whether or not he or she has that majority.

Poilievre was quite within his rights to bring this matter to the GG and request an opportunity to form Government. The correct response, in my opinion, then becomes, because it is not clear that the house would support Poilievre anymore than it would support Trudeau, and the parliamentary term is so close to completion, a general election.
The issue is not in Trudeau's hands. It is in the hands of the Commons and the GG.

He was right inasmuch as there’s no direct mechanism for party members to simply say “enough”. By very sound convention, the GG will not dissolve parliament until loss of confidence in the House has been concretely demonstrated. That has not yet happened. On the contrary the government survived several recent confidence votes; Poillievre’s theatrics might have actually slightly weakened his own case in that respect.More than 50 Liberal MPs leave call with 'consensus' Justin Trudeau should step down: CBC

Even if Liberal MPs want to buck the party leader on a confidence vote, they still need to wait for a confidence matter to be before the House. That will happen, but I don’t know how soon the opposition will have the opportunity to introduce one.
