That's Mulclair's theory.

"It's quite interesting to see today that Justin Trudeau sees the merits of something we put on the table on Oct. 23," Mulcair said.
Last fall, the New Democrats had put forth a motion to end partisan activities in the Senate, including participation in caucus meetings. Trudeau voted against it. Ultimately, Mulcair returned to the party's long-held position that the Upper Chamber should be abolished. "The way to deal with the Senate is to eliminate it," he said.
He also said he believes Trudeau's about-face probably has something to do with upcoming AG's report. This report will be nothing but bad news for the Conservatives *and* Liberals.
