John Nater on Government Business No. 43—Proceedings on Bill C-78

Madam Speaker, what is deeply undemocratic is a Liberal government that campaigned on not using it and then hypocritically uses it so often, allowing only hours of debate. In this case, we were allowed to debate for an hour and 15 minutes on a major tax policy measure; it will have almost no debate in the House, no debate in committee and no room for amendments.
