Marathon Voting Underway In Ottawa


Voting is underway at the House of Commons on hundreds of opposition amendments to the Harper government's controversial omnibus budget bill.

Thunder Bay-Rainy River MP John Rafferty says there's too many sections impacting areas other than the budget for it to be accepted as is.

Voting started at 1 a.m. this morning and is expected to last until at least midnight.
