Environmental and Labour guillotine.

I called it when they first came out with the Act. The environment was gonna take a hit, a huge one. Didn't predict labour rights being affected though.

Liberals will cheer for it. I saw in another thread they were cheering for the pipeline...
If it was any other party they'd be losing their minds.

One key point is that this bill makes many of Carney's emergency powers permanent.

That's not how they were originally sold (special tools to resist Trump)
