Y O U R PRI CE 0 DOWN 0 DOWN 0 DOWN HEMI O TTAWA - The Conservative government wrapped up a bruising spring sitting of Parliament by channelling Larry the Cable Guy and his bulldozer, blue- collar ethic: " Git ' er done." " We got the job done," Peter Van Loan, the Conservative House leader, repeated no less than 12 times in a seven- minute address Thursday as he sang the praises of a " productive and orderly" session. Making a virtue of its critics' harshest broadsides, the government of Prime Minister Stephen Harper says the massive omnibus budget implementation bill it jammed through the House of Commons last week is a symbol of strong, focused leadership in a troubled world. " It was important to implement our budget on a timely basis to secure Canada's place as an island of economic stability," Van Loan said. " While many parts of the world face political paralysis and economic turmoil, our government has made sure that decisions are made and action is taken." The budget bill contains a truckload of big- impact measures - a complete rewrite of the Environmental Assessment Act, new ministerial powers to override the National Energy Board and the elimination of numerous oversight and advisory agencies - all tucked into routine " implementation" legislation overseen by a single Commons committee and subcommittee. Considering that some of those " timely" economic measures, such as changes to oldage security, won't take effect for years, opposition critics say the government's haste is a sham designed to sneak through major changes with little public notice or debate. " A lot of the changes we're talking about are changes that we are all going to be addressing together in the next election campaign ( in 2015)," NDP Leader Tom Mulcair said. " This is an effort by the government to fundamentally change the country for as long as a generation or more," said Nathan Cullen, Mulcair's House leader, In addition to the all- purpose budget bill, the government used the spring sitting to finally kill the long- gun registry, revamp immigration and refugee policy and launch an attack on advocacy work by the charitable sector. In fact, a lot of significant reforms were addition by subtraction. The National Round Table on the Environment and the Economy went into the Dumpster, as did the inspector general's office at the Canadian Security Intelligence Service and a national body for gathering statistics on Aboriginal people. The parliamentary budget officer was stonewalled in his attempts to get departmental information on budget cuts, then was told he was overstepping his mandate. The Conservatives also launched a concerted campaign to characterize environmental groups as " radicals" serving foreign interests. " This is a truly bad government... It doesn't understand its own limits," said Liberal interim Leader Bob Rae. " It's not just a style, but it's a profound attitude toward other people and other opinions which is deeply, deeply unhealthy." - The Canadian Press MPs expand our political vocabulary As the House of Commons breaks, here's a primer on the lingo MPs introduced to the political lexicon: . " Trojan Horse" bill: The NDP's name for C- 38, the Conservative government's budget bill. So called because many policies and changes included are not strictly about spending; the NDP uses the Trojan Horse analogy to suggest the bill is hiding things. . Slow vote: A tactic used by the NDP during the marathon voting session on amendments to the budget bill to prolong the voting process. During voting, individual MPs took as long as possible to stand up each time their name was called for voting. . Dutch disease: Used by NDP Leader Thomas Mulcair to describe how, in his view, the economic growth spurred by the Alberta oilsands inflates the dollar and hurts Ontario and Quebec manufacturing. The Economist first used the term to explain the decline of manufacturing in the Netherlands in the 1970s. . Vikileaks: A term stemming from February's controversy in which a Liberal party staffer created a Twitter account to begin sharing details of Public Safety Minister Vic Toews' personal life. The staffer resigned and interim Liberal leader Bob Rae apologized to Toews. . Robocalls: Automated phone calls with a pre- recorded message used by marketing companies and political parties. It refers to an Elections Canada probe of fraudulent automated calls made in the 2011 election. . Pierre Poutine: Poutine was the alias used to purchase the cellphone linked to the robocalls. . Omnibus: A large piece of legislation, such as the budget billl, that contains several parts. - Postmedia News Contentious Commons wraps up spring sitting By Bruce Cheadle Peter Van Loan: ' productive and orderly' A 16 FRIDAY, JUNE 22, 2012 CANADA winnipegfreepress. com Tory praises ' timely' bulldozer tactics A_ 16_ Jun- 22- 12_ FP_ 01. indd A16 6/ 21/ 12 7: 19: 37 PM ;
