C-501 Passes to Next Level
A private member's bill that aims to protect severance and termination pay in bankruptcy cases has passed a key legislative vote in the House of Commons.
M-P's voted 164-119 in favour of moving Thunder Bay-Rainy River M-P John Rafferty's bill from the Report Stage to a third reading.
Rafferty was hoping to have that vote last Friday.
He says it could now take place as early as June.
