NDP Omnibus Bill

omnibus bill: In all, almost 40 different pieces of legislation are being altered by the single bill tabled Friday, according to Huffington Post. The official Opposition NDP simply calls it a "monster." The latest Conservative omnibus bill weighs in at 359 pages and alters everything from the food and rail safety regimes to the Judges Act, the National Defence Act and the handling of temporary foreign workers. The government says it is designed to enact measures in last month's federal budget, and has christened the effort the "Harper Government Creating Jobs a Growth While Returning to Balanced Budgets With Economic Action Plan 2014 Act, No. 1."
