"I''m feeling absolutely confident about winning that vote of no-confidence. The way to win that vote is by writing to party leaders. I intend to fight and to win that vote of no-confidence, I believe I can do that," he said. Report by Kennedyl.

00:00 For me, I am feeling absolutely confident about winning that vote of no confidence.
00:04 The way you win that vote is by meeting with party leaders. That's why I've written to
00:08 every single party leader, Patrick Harvie, Lorna Slater, Anna Sauer, Douglas Ross, and
00:16 Alex Cole-Hamilton to say let's meet and how do we make minority government work? I intend
00:21 to fight and to win that vote of no confidence. I believe I can do that. What I would say
00:26 to the opposition is for minority government to work. We have to make sure that we're all
00:30 acting in good faith.
