The second of two pieces I have up on the national page of Xtra.ca today, this shorter piece is an update to Monday's piece on the current debate on the refugee bill going before Parliament. Given that I couldn't get a substantive comment from the Liberals for that piece, this one follows up not only with a conversation I had with one of the committee members, but also the quote I got from Michael Ignatieff during the scrums after Question Period today. Getting a question in one of those scrums is still exciting, because it's really a bit of chaos where you have to be strategic and not shy about getting your question in there, while everyone else is shouting questions.

Liberals debating provisions of refugee bill
