"Occupy movement knows what's going on this country" - Carol Hughes. Time allocation and closure is what allows them to sweep draconian laws and amendments that will bring this nation down just like the US. The Neo Conservatives are shutting down the entire opposition party using this tactic (and others) which shows how much they care about the Canadian people. I guess they're in hurry to get things done, huh? I guess people who voted NDP are not allowed to speak on anything. THIS REALLY P.M.O. ! (and PMO ALSO stands for Prime Ministers Office). I am PO at the PMO.
@harbingerofcake oops, I mis-sread the article. The MP's are gagged from speaking to reporters.

@kimhunter2 I don't think that's true, about MPs having to have their questions authorized. Otherwise, how would Charlie Angus get away with... pretty much everything that comes out of his mouth in the HOC?

I read that our MPs must first have their questions authorized by Harper before they can speak in legislation. Another article just the other day about how mounties now need to show gov. information before the public. CETA. Koyto. The Crime Bill. My stomach sinks to think we are no longer a democracy in Canada.
