This is Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's first reaction after the NDP withdrew support. Asked by reporters about the prospect of an election in Newfoundland, Trudeau said he hopes the NDP will focus on what more we can do for Canadians together, as we have done over the past two years. .

Trudeau also said that those who want to do politics will focus only on work. The Prime Minister said that it is hoped that the turn of the election will not come before the next fall. He said that we are working for Canadians, while on the other hand Conservative leaders want to cut everything from dental care to the school food program and pharmacare.

It may be noted that Jagmeet Singh has announced the withdrawal of support from the Liberals at a time when the sitting of the House of Commons begins on September 16. On this occasion, the NDP may be tested on the motion of no confidence against the Conservative Party government.
