OTTAWA — The Speaker of the House of Commons has given a green light to more than 800 proposed opposition amendments to the Conservative government’s so-called omnibus bill.

 

But Andrew Scheer said he intends to restrict the number of votes on proposed changes to the controversial budget implementation legislation, known as Bill C-38.

Well you can't say 800 amendments are unreasonable when the bill totals 420 pages.
