How are MPs passing so many bills without voting? - CBC
AI Briefing
- MPs are using a process called 'consecutive sittings' where bills are passed through multiple stages without a vote on each stage.
- The government can also use a 'hybrid' approach, where a bill is passed through a combination of consent and a vote.
- The lack of voting can be attributed to the Liberal government's use of a ' Consent Motion' which allows bills to be passed without a vote, making it difficult for opposition parties to block or delay legislation.
