MPs in the House of Commons have passed the Liberal government’s Budget Implementation Act following a filibuster by the federal Conservatives that lasted several weeks.

The NDP and Liberals voted against the opposing Tories and Bloc Quebecois to pass Bill C-47 through the House of Commons by a vote of 177-146, sending it to the Senate chamber.
