Relocating to more spacious venue for House sittings impractical, some MPs say

Liberal MP Kevin Lamoureux says he personally doesn't expect Parliament to reconvene in full this year.

Green Party Parliamentary Leader Elizabeth May, pictured May 6, 2020, speaking with Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland from a distance in the Chamber before the special COVID-19 committee meeting. Some MPs say moving to a more spacious venue for sittings would still require travel into the city, and parties 'haven't had any discussions' about such a move.
