Andrew Scheer will serve as the leader of the Opposition until Poilievre wins a seat in the House
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre will address his caucus on Sunday as they prepare to return to the House of Commons without him in the chamber.
Poilievre’s remarks are scheduled to be open to the media.
The Conservatives won 144 seats in the April 28 election but Poilievre’s seat was not one of them.
Conservative Damien Kurek plans to give up his seat in Alberta to allow Poilievre to run there in a byelection.
In the meantime, former party leader Andrew Scheer will serve as the leader of the Opposition in the House of Commons and Poilievre has appointed 73 people as critics on specific files.
MPs Chris d’Entremont and Tom Kmiec are likely to spend part of the day lobbying their caucus mates for support in the election of the House speaker role, which will be the first order of business for MPs when Parliament opens on Monday.
