Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs Dominic Leblanc said on Sept. 6 that he is “very confident” his party will deliver on the 27 commitments made to the NDP to remain in power until 2025.

“I am absolutely convinced that every one of the 27 commitments that the Prime Minister [Justin Trudeau] and Mr. [Jagmeet] Singh made will be acted upon, will be in place,” Leblanc said in a press conference before the cabinet retreat in Vancouver.
