Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre says that if his government is formed, he will start work from day one and that parliamentary proceedings will last until the passage of three important bills related to the people.

Poilievre said that his government will run the House of Commons sitting throughout the summer to pass bills related to capacity, crime and the economy, and during this time, politicians' vacations will be canceled.

Poilievre was in Saskatoon this morning, which is considered a safe seat for the Conservatives. At the same time, he also talked about eliminating trade barriers between provinces immediately upon forming a government to deal with Trump's tariffs.

He said that we will do everything we can within the country to make Canada stronger.
