Bill 23 - Weed Control Act

November 3, 2008 - Committee of the Whole

Ms Blakeman: Mr. Chairman, usually I would ask that this be severed so that we could vote separately on this, but I’ve talked to our critic on this area, and they were okay with what had come through the recommendations from the committee that had this under examination, that being the Standing Committee on Resources and Environment. The member has done a very clear and easy to follow walk-through, and I’ve been able to follow at the same time and verify that what is being brought forward in this amendment is exactly what was under the recommendations from the committee, so I won’t ask that the votes be severed and voted on separately. I have the direction from our critic to support this bill. Sometimes you just appreciate the good work that somebody else has done.

This one I’m not going to learn all about. I’m going to trust that they knew what they were doing and they did a good job and I don’t have to learn this one. So good on you. Thanks so much.
