“the House decline to give second reading to Bill C-31, An Act to implement certain provisions of the budget tabled in Parliament on February 11, 2014 and other measures, because it:

(     c) fails to reverse devastating cuts to infrastructure and healthcare;

(     d) hands over private financial information of hundreds of thousands of Canadians to the US Internal Revenue Service under the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act;

(     e) reduces transparency at the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency;

            (f) imposes tolls on the Champlain Bridge;

(     g) jeopardizes the independence of eleven federal administrative tribunals; and

(   h) enables the government to weaken regulations affecting rail safety and the transport of dangerous goods without notifying the public.”.
