farewell speeches delivered in Parliament by MPs who are not seeking re-election — something that would seem rather odd if those MPs were simply returning to the House of Commons after the summer break.
The comments yesterday from Justin Trudeau about opposition parties obstructing his legislative agenda certainly seem to be setting the stage for the prime minister to seek an election and to have a ready-made excuse for why he is doing so.Furthermore, recent polls showing the Liberals extending their lead over Conservatives will do nothing to dissuade the Liberals from seeking to turn their minority government into a majority one.
