To our fellow citizens,
Canada is facing a global economic crisis. Since the recent federal election,
it has become clear that the government headed by Stephen Harper has no plan,
no competence and, no will to effectively address this crisis. Therefore, the
majority of Parliament has lost confidence in Mr. Harper's government, and
believes that the formation of a new Government that will effectively,
prudently, promptly and competently address these critical economic times is
necessary.
The contrast between the inaction of Mr. Harper's government and the common
action taken by all other Western democracies is striking. We cannot accept
this.
A majority of Canadians and Quebecers voted for our parties on October 14,
2008. Our Members of Parliament make up 55 per cent of the House of Commons.
In light of the critical situation facing our citizens, and the Harper
government's unwillingness and inability to address the crisis, we are resolved
to support a new government that will address the interests of the people.
Today we respectfully inform the Governor General that, as soon as the
appropriate opportunity arises, she should call on the Leader of the Official
Opposition to form a new government, supported as set out in the accompanying
accords by all three of our parties.
Respectfully,
Hon. Stéphane Dion Leader,
the Liberal Party of Canada
Hon. Jack Layton Leader,
the New Democratic Party of Canada
Gilles Duceppe Leader,
the Bloc Québécois
