It doesn't look like the one opposition party left in the Federal government has any intention of letting the current Federal budget pass with its controversial immigration ammendments. In a May 21 article in the National Post, Toronto NDP MP, Oliva Chow (wife of NDP leader, Jack Layton) is quoted, "We're going to throw everything we can at it," she said. "We will speak, we will move motions, we will have amendments, we will try to make sure it doesn't pass this summer."
"Ordinary Canadians have not had the chance to speak out about this," said Ms. Chow. "The New Democrats believe the public would be served by [having] at least a few months to discuss and debate this issue."
With no budget in place before Summer, I hope the Conservatives have saved some Loonies!
