Standoff over documents grinds government business to a halt in Parliament

A standoff between the Liberals and opposition parties over a demand for documents has ground government business to a halt in the House of Commons.

“Let’s be very clear, this is the Conservatives trying to muck up Parliament,” Government House Leader Karina Gould told reporters on Parliament Hill Thursday afternoon. “There is significant risk that the motion could be interpreted as a circumvention of normal investigative processes and Charter protections,” the commissioner wrote.

Mr. Fergus said it is unusual and unprecedented for the House to order documents for the purposes of handing them over to a third party. In an interview, Mr. Scheer said he views the committee study as a delay tactic and called on the government to release the requested documents.
