OTTAWA — Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre pledged to bring back the “promise of Canada” if he forms government, but he failed to convince other opposition parties to support his motion to force a snap election.

Poilievre introduced his non-confidence motion against the minority government on Tuesday. Already, the Bloc Québécois and the NDP have said that they will not support it when it goes to a vote on Wednesday, meaning the Liberals will hold onto power.
