OMNIBUS BUDGET BILL, C-38

[Mancilla]

Govt rammed #C38 through the House, shutting down debate (& accountability) with 3 separate procedural guillotines, so far. #NDP #cdnpoli

Kudos to the #HoC Clerks caught in the govt’s #C38 web, calling out the same 300ish names 150ish times during the 24h+ #omnivote. #NDP

You can't have both. It's either make Canada better OR pass C38

Now 8hrs into stand-up voting. We've dealt with 45 of 159 motions. Opposing Harper's grotesque legislation + process #lpc #C38 #BudgetFAIL

What an absolute shame to democracy after some 10 hours of voting against #C38 amendments the #CPC refuse to hold #QP in the #HoC #cdnpoli

I beleive this bill also has provisions to slash backlog of old applications ir pre Nov 27, 2008 applications ?

The “Conservatives” pushed through their radical omnibus Bill C-38. Tonight we mourn. Tomorrow we fight. #C38 #cdnpoli

Canadian court ruled yesterday against cic in the case instituted by immigration backloggers. Court ruled that all applications should be processed. The unanswered question is if the ruling supercedes the provisions in the immigration section of Omnibus bill C38.

Does Bill 29 make the government more secretive? Better to have a look at it
