Members of Parliament are expected to vote for up to 15 hours in a row Thursday and Friday on more than 200 Conservative amendments to the government’s sustainable jobs bill.
Conservative critic Shannon Stubbs calls it a blueprint for what she deems the Liberals’ “wide-scale radical economic restructuring.”
When it moved to the natural resources committee in November for study, the debate descended into a chaotic mess and lengthy filibuster that at one point had MPs screaming at each other to shut up.
The noise was so loud during the final meeting in early December that two MPs voted the wrong way on a motion because they couldn’t hear what was being proposed.
In late March, during a committee discussion about an unrelated topic, Stubbs denied the Bill C-50 amendments were computer generated.
At midnight, a minister can seek to suspend the votes until 9 a.m. the following day, to protect the health and safety of not only MPs but Hill and House of Commons staff.
