The federal New Democrats backed Conservative demands Wednesday that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau take part in a televised "emergency meeting" on carbon pricing with Canada's premiers.

The federal carbon price is not the "be-all, end-all" of climate policy, and New Democrats are open to alternative plans presented by premiers, NDP environment critic Laurel Collins said Wednesday.

Why does this necessitate being a televised event? Sounds like this is just going to be a set-up to dunk on climate policy for sound bites without accomplishing anything meaningful.

And in a televised event, Poilievre is going to clean up. The NDP's worst case scenario for this motion is that the Liberals fall for it.
