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."

Listened to Ganum today as it is Friday and Cross Talk with other radio hosts in Canada. The guy from B.C. mentioned shootings in Surrey which was the first any of them heard - too busy giving Canadians news from south of the border. After the show Shay had open line and a long time listener (tesla Jim) phoned in and said he watches all the Global news from AB and Canada and knew nothing about it. I hadn't either. Do we need further proof that the Canadian media is corrupt.

Does anyone know if Dougie has commented on the "Crown Royal Players championship of curling in Manitoba. I must admit I had to look twice to see if I was actually seeing correctly. Good for a chuckle. Ontario only made the dam bottles not the booze.
