Quote:
The provincial government was rapped on the knuckles Tuesday for carbon tax radio ads it aired this past summer.
Government isn't allowed to promote legislation still making its way through the house — and Bill 20, which includes the carbon tax, had yet to be given an official thumbs-up.
It's the second time the NDP has been ruled out of order for its public communications.

Although Wildrose house leader Nathan Cooper stood up to speak, Wanner declared that once a guilty party delivers an apology, the matter is over.

How can the matter be over with a simple apology? I'm surprised that (Speaker Robert Wanner) would say that.
