Back in December

After sitting in Iqaluit for a little more than two and a half weeks, MLAs seem to be growing weary and somewhat homesick. So they have decided to break for three weeks, before returning to Iqaluit for four days beginning Dec. 2.

That means the current session, which was supposed to be the last sitting of the first legislative assembly, is actually the second-last.

MLAs must wrap up all remaining business in December, before the legislature is dissolved in January. There are still several bills, including the proposed new Wildlife Act, awaiting third reading.
