House of Commons business has been gridlocked over green-tech funding for weeks
A debate has ground work in the House of Commons to a halt for weeks, but a new poll suggests that most Canadians are not even aware it’s happening.
The Tories have vowed to continue debate on their motion until the Liberals hand over unredacted documents about the fund to Parliament and the RCMP. Matters of privilege take priority over all other business in the House of Commons until they are settled. Bloc Québécois Leader Yves-Francois Blanchet said Wednesday his party would support such a motion if the government finds a way to pass two Bloc bills on old age security and supply management.
Holding an election to break the gridlock was the most popular option among Conservative voters who took the survey.
