The Governor General of Canada, Jean Michel (Michaelle Jean) on Thursday, December 4, suspended parliament, said AFP.
This was done to postpone the vote on the vote of no confidence in the Government of Stephen Harper - Prime Minister and leader of the Conservative Party, which won parliamentary elections in October, but has not reached enough votes to form a government majority.
As a result of early elections to parliament, among conservatives, hit by the Liberal and New Democratic Party, the Green Party and the Quebec assembly. Opponents have designated to vote on no-confidence vote on 8 December. Rather, it would be supported, and then the Harper government would be dissolved.
Opposition parties accuse Harper that he does not plan to combat the financial crisis, a minority government does not do anything to support the economy of Canada.
The work of Parliament was adjourned until 27 November 2009, when the government must submit a budget of the country, reports BBC News.
