For more than a month, the government has not been able to pass any legislation. The House of Commons has been at a standstill as they debate whether the Liberal government breached parliamentary privilege.

The Globe’s senior politics reporter Marieke Walsh talks about why the House has been unable to put this debate to rest, and why that’s leading to no movement in the House. She also catches us up on the latest news around Trudeau’s leadership of the Liberal Party and what the Bloc Québécois ending its support for the Liberals means for our chances of an election.
