"This was a mistake. We need to take the time, give the public the opportunity to say how they feel about this. I've suggested it in fact go to a citizens' panel to look at the entire package to see if it's fair and make recommendations in public," she said.

Campbell said the Liberal caucus will review its position on the legislation on Monday in light of the NDP about-face.

The bill has created a storm of controversy, with the Canadian Taxpayers Federation calling it "absolutely disgusting."

After the teachers strike and the looming public sector contract renewals you would think that at least ONE of the 79 MLA's would have said "ah, Carol and Gordon, don't you think that perhaps , uummmm,-er, ahem-the optics of this MIGHT not be correct right now. Just one politician out of 79!
I can see where greed clouds their vision but you would think that at least one polician would clue in.
I mean, after all, 3 million taxpayers did!!!
