What happened to the Green Party's motion of non-confidence in the premier and PC government?

The Green Party's non-confidence motion in Premier Rob Lance and his PC government returned to the legislature today. It was introduced last week, but no vote was taken because MLAs ran out of time. And it was a similar story today. Wayne Thibodeau is at the legislature and joins us now. So, Wayne, what exactly happened today with that Green Party motion? Well, this afternoon, Louise, we heard from the PCs and the Liberals, but the debate this afternoon was nowhere near as emotional as it was this time last week, where PC MLA's used words like ludicrous and an attack on our government to describe this non-confidence motion. In fact, the Liberal MLA says he was torn over what to do about this motion. I don't like this motion, to be honest, Mr. Speaker, as I believe it is a party trying to play politics with the timing, I guess, in the situation. We've all been watching polls. We know how difficult it is to govern in any jurisdiction in North America, for that matter. And when we speak about the issue of no confidence, that's one of the issues that I have. It probably would mean if there was an election to whichever party wins, there'd probably be a new Minister of Fisheries. And a new minister of fisheries that probably would do some that little bit more and deliver some of the goods that comes to our oyster industry. So I've lost confidence in the minister of fisheries. So in the end, Henderson says he'll support the motion of non-confidence, but not all of the Liberal caucus appears that they will support that or take the same approach that Henderson is. Now, for his part, fisheries minister Ernie Hudson, who you heard Henderson mentioned there, he says he will not be supporting the motion of non-confidence. I would have to say, Mr. Speaker, that I have never seen such a flippant, self-serving, political gamemanship motion at either the federal or provincial levels. So last week, we had hoped to speak to Premier Rob Lance about this last week. They told us that we would be able to speak with him this week or that he would speak to this motion, but he didn't today. So we checked in with officials from the Premier's office. Now, they do tell us he plans to speak on this motion. That's if it's debated again. Yeah, so that's my question. Is there going to be a vote? What happens now? Well, the Green Party members say their concern is that the PCs just plan to talk this out. Now, the Greens only have one hour a week to do their business Thursday between four and five p.m. So that's to do things like motions and legislation. So they're saying if they call this motion again next Thursday at four o'clock, that'll just further delay the other business that they want to get to. So this may very well be the end of this debate. We also need to keep in mind the PCs hold the big majority, 18 of the 27 seats. So even if there is a vote on this, the chances are it will not pass. Yeah, true enough. Thanks, Wayne. That's Wayne Thibodeau reporting from the legislature.
