Canada avoided a snap election Monday night as the Liberal government pushed its federal budget through by a two-vote margin, 170 to 168. Support from Green Party Leader Elizabeth May and two NDP abstentions proved decisive after intense pressure and last-minute talks.
The close call raises new questions about the stability of the Liberal minority and what might be ahead in the coming months as the government brings forward the budget implementatin bill and faces further confidence tests in the House of Commons. We take a closer look at what happened behind the scenes in Ottawa.
