Premier calls opposition delay tactics at Province House 'ridiculous'

On Friday, NDP Leader Claudia Chender called it an unprecedented move to bring the bodies under the direct control of or answerable to cabinet ministers rather than boards of directors.
"Never has anyone that I have ever spoken to that has served in this role experienced an agenda like the one that this government has put forward," said Chender, who also had a direct message for those on the government side of the House about the extended hours.
"This is not normal," said the MLA for Dartmouth South. "This is not the way that we do the government's business. You may see it as an inconvenience [but] this is our only opportunity to bring our constituents' voices to this floor."
