OTTAWA — Jack Layton sent the Conservatives the clarion signal they have been demanding, stating unequivocally today that he is committed to helping them bring down the government at the next available opportunity.

Michael McCafferty comments:

Canadians deserve the opportunity to go to the polls to vote on the record of Paul Martin's Liberal government. Jack Layton has now made it perfectly clear the NDP will support a non-confidence in parliament.

In my opinion the opposition parties in parliament would be very wise to wait until December 8th to vote down the government meaning a January 16th election. Anything else would literally ruin the Christmas season in Canada.

Regardless if you support the Liberals,Conservatives,NDP,Bloc or Greens I do believe the time has come to clear the air on Gomery and let the Canadian people decide on who they want as government.
