95.17EM Emergency Resolution: Bill C-62, The Regulatory Efficiency Act
Whereas, Bill C-62 in its original format would allow individual businesses to be exempted from federal regulations by negotiating private agreements with Ministers; and,
Whereas, The Secretariat to the Joint Committee of the House of Commons and Senate has spoken against Bill C-62, indicating that it violates fundamental principles of the Constitution; and,
Whereas, This piecemeal approach to health and the environment can only lead to reduced standards, unevenly applied;
therefore be it
RESOLVED, That The National Council of Women of Canada urge the Government of Canada to rescind Bill C-62, the Regulatory Efficiency Act.
