Liberal government wants voting health breaks for MPs, accuses Opposition of ‘obstruction’
The Liberal government wants to impose “health breaks” to eliminate overnight voting in the House of Commons and to combat what they say is Opposition Leader Pierre Poilievre’s personal drive to “obstruct and create chaos.”
Government House leader Steve MacKinnon introduced the motion Monday. The New Democrats voiced their immediate support for it.
It would address the “obstruction” of the Opposition Conservatives for the remainder of the current parliamentary session and discourage such tactics in the future, MacKinnon said.
