Harpooned: Bills That Will Die With Prorogation

By admin

When (if doesn’t really seem to be a logical conclusion to the situation in Parliament right now) Stephen Harpoons Canadian democracy (again) using prorogation (again) inappropriately (again), the following is a list of bills that will die on the floor of the House of Commons.  While most of them are Conservative bills, it reminds us all how inefficient the lust for control of power
