OTTAWA – The Liberal majority has voted against the Conservatives' Opposition day motion, triggering what could be a marathon session of voting in the House of Commons.

The Conservatives set themselves up for the procedural showdown, based on whether or not the Liberals supported their motion to have a senior bureaucrat testify before a committee about the Atwal incident during the official trip to India.

In preparation for the government to not support its proposition, Conservative House Leader Candice Bergen put on notice nearly 260 motions, or "opposed votes," that MPs have to deal with before getting to the already scheduled vote on the government’s supplementary and interim estimates tonight.

The supplementary estimates are a document that outlines additional government spending.

Before the estimates can be voted on, the rules state MPs have to deal with any opposed votes, which by putting up so many, Bergen is essentially using them as a procedural tool. Each one opposes a different portion, or line, of the estimates.

"We’re going to us every tool that we have,” Bergen said ahead of the votes Thursday.

MPs spent the day debating the motion: to have the House call Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to instruct his national security advisor, Daniel Jean, to testify publicly at the Public Safety and National Security Committee before the end of the month.

It was defeated by a vote of 111 in support to 161 against.

The Tories already tried once to have Jean appear, in hopes of getting more answers about why he suggested in a background briefing to reporters that factions in the Indian government may have tried to sabotage Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's trip to India in February, while others have disputed that theory. This briefing was given to reporters after photos surfaced of attempted murderer Jaspal Atwal with Sophie Gregoire Trudeau at an event.

After a failed overnight marathon voting session, the Conservatives relent and say they're prepared to end their filibuster-like retaliation tactics and send MPs home.

I watched some of the debate between Scheer and JT, if you want to call it a debate...what a colossal joke the HOC is.

Look it up on Youtube if you want to lose some IQ watching it.

Haha.....non-stop fake outrage about everything From spending money (that's way, way less than any Conservative in my lifetime) to a fake India scandal involving an individual Jaspal Atwal who has been involved with both the Conservatives and the Liberals. All manufactured by the racist, pundit, internet media site The Rebel's former employee and now the Conservative's election Campaign manager, Hamish Marshall.

) to a fake India scandal involving an individual Jaspal Atwal

If it is so fake, then why don't the ball-less Liberals let this bureaucrat testify, and end all of this now? Instead of inventing fake nonsense about some Rebel guy, why don't you go back to your handlers and get the script you are supposed to post about why they have no balls, and won't let this national security advisor testify? What are they so scared of? Why won't they let him talk? This seems to indicate some serious issues with the Liberals and what went on in India.

So calling it a "fake scandal" is dishonest and disingenuous. These loser Liberals are hiding something.
