Conservative MP John Williamson says the Committee on Public Accounts, which he chairs, will return three weeks early on January 7 to force a non-confidence motion in Parliament.
The underlying principle of Canada's Parliament and constitutional order is responsible government, said Williamson in a letter to committee members published on social media, noting the federal government must maintain the confidence of Parliament in order to function.
"It is now clear that the Liberal Government does not have the confidence of Parliament," wrote Williamson.
"Conservative, Bloc Quebecois and NDP members — representing a majority of MPs — have all announced they will vote non-confidence in the Liberal Goverment. This would force a federal election"
Parliamentary committees, explained Williamson, are a refection of the House of Commons.
"Given the oversight mandate of the Public Accounts Committee, it is appropriate for its members to begin these non-confidence deliberations while Parliament is adjourned until late January," he wrote.
"In the event Liberal members on the committee attempt to filibuster and delay the passage of this non-confidence motion, I am prepared to schedule meetings throughout January."

Last week, Mitch Sylvestre and I sat down with the Citizens First Canada podcast to lay out exactly where the Alberta independence movement stands, what we’ve accomplished, and where we’re headed next.
What We Covered:
The Path to a Referendum We now have a quarter of a million pledges from Albertans ready to sign for a Citizens Initiative Act referendum. We only need 177,000 signatures. The minute our court case ...
