Northwest MP Upset With Prorogation

Thunder Bay-Superior North MP Bruce Hyer says it's extremely outrageous that the Prime Minister has decided to prorogue Parliament until after Thanksgiving.

Hyer calls the move ridiculous and notes it seems like every time the government gets into trouble it decides to halt business.

Stephen Harper says he wants to end the current session instead of returning next month, and start a new one with a throne speech in October.

He says it's because most of the promises the Conservatives made in the last election have been fulfilled.
