M.P.'s Summer Holiday's Delayed

It could be a few more weeks before M.P.'s get back to their ridings for the summer.

The Federal budget Omnibus bill has been delayed by back to work legislation for CP rail workers, and now hundreds of budget amendments from the Opposition.

Kenora M.P. Greg Rickford says at this point he's not sure when the current sitting will actually end.

M.P.'s are now preparing for what's could top 24 hours of voting on more than 800 proposed amendments to the Tory government's massive budget-implementation bill.
