Conservative MP Raquel Dancho was ejected from the House of Commons on Dec. 8, after she accused a Liberal MP of lying during question period and refused to apologize.
Vance Badawey, the parliamentary secretary to the minister of Indigenous Services, said the Conservatives have been obstructing testimony at the House public safety committee regarding the Liberals’ gun control legislation, Bill C-21. A recent proposal from the government to amend the bill would expand the scope of prohibited firearms to include hunting rifles, which some members of the opposition said would hurt the rights of legal gun owners and that of indigenous people.
