Justin Trudeau and House of Commons

physical alteration: Liberal MPs applaud after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau delivered an apology in the House of Commons in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada May 19, 2016 following a physical alteration the previous day, according to Huffington Post Canada. The drama managed to drown out or throw off course several other developments that affect everyday lives. The Trudeau government apologized no fewer than six times over a 24-hour period for transgressions past and present, and had to walk back a contentious proposal to impose stricter controls over debate in the House of Commons. Here are three other developments in practical politics this week that will touch Canadians after the din of "Elbowgate'' dies down. First, serious discussion was delayed by last year federal election. The law that would allow some Canadians access to medically assisted death has been knocked about by politics yet again.
