Michelle Rempel Garner Conservative
“This bill creates a commission with too much power and not enough accountability. It would make rules, investigate, enforce, prosecute, and hold secret hearings. The government needs to explain this better, and we need to look closely at these powers.”
“Madam Speaker, I am just going to look at the bill. The proposed commission would have sweeping powers with little accountability. It would serve as a super-regulator. It would act as rule-maker, investigator, enforcer and prosecutor, and have hearings in secret. I want to know what that means, and it deserves a lot of scrutiny. The government should have put that in the bill.”
