House Of Commons: Final Vote

Rob Nicholson Dept: OTTAWA, Ont. -- Procedural tactics by the NDP in the House of Commons managed to postpone a final vote on the Conservative government's sweeping crime bill late Wednesday, according to Winnipeg Free Press. Justice Minister Rob Nicholson accused New Democrats of being more interested in procedural games than what he called doing the right thing for Canadians and crime bill vote delayed The stalling tactics mean Bill C-10 likely won't come to a final vote until early next week -- a perhaps fitting end-game for a bill that has attracted no end of partisan acrimony in parliament.
