NDP to push for repeal of Bill C-51
Liberals have promised to amend the anti-terrorism legislation.

During the fall sitting of Parliament, the NDP plans to challenge the Liberal government on issues including climate change, health-care funding and indigenous affairs.
It intends to push for the repeal of Bill C-51, a controversial piece of anti-terrorism legislation passed by the previous government.
The Liberals have promised to amend the law, but New Democrats accuse the Trudeau government of moving too slowly on planned reforms.
“They promised that they were going to take out the most offensive parts of Bill C-51, they haven’t done it and we are the only ones who are going to be holding them to account,” said outgoing NDP leader Tom Mulcair.
It is challenging to pounce on the Liberals during the first year of their mandate because Canadians want to give the benefit of the doubt to a fresh face, Mulcair said.
“We’ve been through this before,” he said. “But we have to believe that Canadians are going to start to take notice a little more this time.”
