A special committee on Canada-U.S. relations will be formed by the House of Commons after the majority of MPs voted in favor of the motion on Tuesday.

With the exception of the Green Party, the Tories managed to garner support from the Liberal government, opposition Bloc Quebecois, and the New Democratic Party in a 326-3 vote.
