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."

Inside the Medical Machine: Dr. Joseph Varon on Censorship, Cover-Ups & the Battle for Real Science
Truth & Justice League
Dec 22, 2025
In this episode of the Truth & Justice League Podcast, host Mark Mueller sits down with Dr. Joseph Varon, a triple-board-certified physician, researcher, and one of the most tireless frontline doctors of the Covid era. Dr. Varon recounts running an entire Covid unit for 715 consecutive days, transforming a small Houston hospital into a functioning ICU and developing a treatment protocol with dramatically lower mortality rates. His story is not just about medicine, it’s about courage, improvisation, and refusing to accept a system that tells doctors to “follow the recipe” instead of thinking.

But his experience also exposed something darker: the suppression of frontline insight, the ostracizing of physicians who questioned official narratives, and the growing influence of corporate interests over medical decision-making. Dr. Varon speaks openly about...
