Liberals say no one is going home for the summer as long as hybrid House of Commons sittings are not made permanent.
Recommended from EditorialMinutes later, government House leader Mark Holland blasted Poilievre for raising a fictitious budget when a real one was well underway in the parliamentary process.
“We have, at the beginning of every session, as folks will remember, had to debate these provisions. And that has taken a lot of time at the beginning of every session,” he said. “Now I think it’s time to not do this every time we start a new session of Parliament.” “But I want to be absolutely clear. We’re not leaving Parliament until we get hybrid adopted,” he said.
The Conservatives presented more than 900 amendments, essentially scrapping all the clauses contained in the bill. But the Speaker in the House rejected some of them and regrouped the rest of the amendments into nine votes that were put to MPs on Wednesday afternoon.
