After Flaherty and the Conservatives attempted to screw the rest of the parties rather than work together and avert the economic crisis with their recent financial update, the Liberals, NDP and Bloc are agreeing to the following statement:

In light of the government’s failure to recognize the seriousness of Canada’s economic situation and its failure in particular to present any credible plan to stimulate the Canadian economy and to help workers and businesses in hard-pressed sectors such as manufacturing, the automotive industry and forestry, this House has lost confidence in this government and is of the opinion that a viable alternative government can be formed within the present House of Commons.

It looks like a big non-confidence vote only a few weeks after an election, however due to quirks in Canadian politics, we won’t have to go to the polls and the NDP-Bloc-Liberals will replace the Conservatives with a coalition government.

This is a very interesting time to be a Canadian political junky.
