Canada: opposition topples Conservative government of Stephen Harper

Canadians will vote in their fourth election in seven years after Canada's opposition parties toppled the Conservative government of Prime Minister Stephen Harper in a no-confidence vote.
According to the Associated Press, the opposition held the Conservatives in contempt of Parliament for failing to disclose the full financial details of Harper's tougher crime legislation, corporate tax cuts and plans to purchase stealth fighter jets.
Legislators in the House of Commons voted by 156-145 to back the motion, which was presented by the main opposition Liberal Party, according to Reuters.
