Seems pretty simple to me. If Trudeau hadn't pulled his power trip the media wouldn't have put the spotlight on the issue and the Liberals wouldn't have withdrawn the motion. The opposition had already put up a stink about this issue and nobody noticed or cared. The Libs knew they were stepping on the opposition necks, they were doing it on purpose as pay back for the vote they almost lost when they were caught with a bunch of absent members on the Monday morning. It's not like they suddenly realised that the whole thing was horribly undemocratic and they should be nicer. I don't expect you to see it that way but there you go.
