Sask. leaders speak on federal NDP’s announcement to end deal with Liberals [Video]

Saskatchewan NDP Leader Carla Beck says it’s about time that the supply and confidence agreement came to an end in Ottawa.

“I hear every day from residents who are frustrated with the federal NDP propping up the federal Liberal government, a government that has failed to deliver results for Saskatchewan,” she said on Wednesday.

Federal NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh posted a video on social media on Wednesday announcing that he’s cutting ties with the Liberals ahead of the fall sitting because he thinks Liberals are “too weak” to fight for the middle class. The agreement was set to expire in June 2025.
