When Could an Election Actually Happen?

Every party in the House of Commons except for the Bloc Québécois contributed to either votes or abstentions that allowed the Liberals to survive Monday's budget vote on a razor-thin margin. Liberal House leader Steven MacKinnon tells Power & Politics he thinks other parties 'secretly liked' large parts of the budget. Then, interim NDP Leader Don Davies says Conservative MPs Andrew Scheer and Scott Reid held back until the end of the budget vote on Monday because they were prepared to 'save this government' and prevent an election if necessary.
