...of the House of Commons... Stephane Dion is laughing his derriere off...
Liberal MPs have forced Michael Ignatieff to swallow his words and scuttle a brewing bipartisan deal on major refugee reforms, jeopardizing the bill and revealing the leader’s shaky hold on his caucus.
Mr. Ignatieff’s office insists Tory claims of a deal were premature; the Liberals were trying to get concessions. “There was never a deal. There were discussions,” spokesman Mario Lagüe said.
Either way, the deal-making died Wednesday, when Liberal MPs revolted against what their own immigration critic was negotiating: a bill with a safe-country list.
Et tu, Mikey?
