When every vote in parliament is a "matter of confidence" that could potentially see the government collapse if not passed, it's only logical that the ruling party would use every tool at their disposal to see the motion succeed.
When every vote in parliament is a free vote, it is inevitable that the governing party may occasionally see one of their own votes fail to pass, as a result of internal dissent.
If the Canadian parliament was to have set election dates, as the BC legislature already does, then no longer would parliamentary governance be in a constant state of uncertain limbo.

He obtained the Canadian Alliance nomination in Charleswood-St. James for the 2004 federal election, and was a strong supporter of the "unite the right" movement that ultimately brought together the federal PC Party and the Canadian Alliance as the Conservative Party of Canada.
Fletcher defended the general tone of his remark, noting that his grandfather witnessed the Japanese army commit wartime atrocities when he was taken as a prisoner of war after the fall of Singapore.
During his first year as health critic, he successfully lead the fight for compensation for people who were infected with Hepatitis C because of the Canadian Red Cross's failure to test for it.
