As MPs head back to the House of Commons, Liberal House of Commons Leader Mark Holland went on the offensive against new Tory leader, Pierre Poilievre, warning against stoking political division.

“This is not a time for parlour tricks. This is not a time for shell games. This is a time for real solutions,” said Holland during a press conference on Sept. 20 as a prelude to Parliament’s return.
