opposition one ndp and one social credit and despite the vote of one liberal against the government at the present time there axe four vacancies in the house of commons and in effect this benefits the government as the majority 3 of the vacancies are in the opposition the vote itsell was of confidence in the government and was based on housing policy i should explain that a vote of nonconfidence in the government while based us ually on one subject means non- confidence in their ability to govern if the government loses seen a vote it does not mean the government has to change its policy on that particular subject b means that the government has to resign and call ageneralelec- tlon in effect therefore a non- ccefltece motion is a call for defeat of the government and a general election it is not a sim ple natter of criticism of any particular government policy the parliament of canada has since gone on to study the budget presented last jane the min ister of finance noted that expo has
