Yeah but now Senator Harder (Government), Griffin (introduced the second amendment) and Martin (Conservative) have all three risen to speak and say they reached an agreement and they will pass C-4 next week and C-6 first week of May. Also Sen Griffin said she new her amendment would be defeated...

I'm extatic you guys, they've just all spoke under record to say they will pass the Bill in May. Very likely that all of us can apply this summer :D

I think this is a direct consequence of http://news.nationalpost.com/news/canada/canadian-politics/trudeaus-senate-representative-slams-obstructionist-conservative-delay-tactics-in-new-report. Newspapers are starting to report the obstruction tactics of the Opposition, and Senate does not want...

Quite the opposite, everyone agrees that it will not take longer than May 3rd to send back the Bill to HoC, what all of us were afraid is that it would go until after summer break

Also, Conservatives just publicly promised to not delay the Bill at all

Senator Harder just said that they will conclude the study of Bill C-6 the first week they are back from Easter Break !!!!

She wants to deny women citizenship because they are typically the ones who are at risk to not learn english or french as a way to incentivize them to learn the language, it doesn't make sense, she's just injustly making it impossible for them to become Canadian thus leaving them at the mercy of...

It's actually Senator Diane Griffin, an Independent nammed by Justin Trudeau

They're talking about stripping people convicted for serious offenses against Canada of their citizenship, the one provision that causes the most trouble to Conservatives

The thing is that if every senator starts proposing amendments the government is going to reject these changes as they did not push a bill in the Senate to get a completely different one coming out of it. 1 amendment is already risky, if other amendments are voted, I thinkt that we'll all be...

Apparently it's not even Conservatives who are introducing these amendments but Idependents

Senator Jaffer just tweeted that there will be many more amendments to the bill, it looks like we might have rejoiced a bit early

Senator Harder already said that the government would vote in favor of the amendment "The important business of government is before us and that is Bill C-6. The amendment that I am speaking to would improve procedural fairness in the process of revocation of citizenship for fraud or false...

Oh wow they almost called for the question for the 3rd reading

The VOTE YEAH !!!

The weird thing is that several senators who are known to be Conservatives like Meredith or Brazeau are voting against Cons adjournments and amendments

Once it reaches 3rd reading it's unseen of a Bill to die. If the Cons had majority it would have died way before, and even if the Senate rejects a Bill, I think that HoC can force its adoption

They haven't just decided to push it to 5:30, it's the result of the standing vote of the sub-amendment introduced last thursday, it was originally scheduled at 5:30 friday but then they accepted that debate resume Tuesday instead to stop the filibustering from the Cons. On 5:30 they will have...

They are following the order of the day, they went back for C-4 because the Senator who wanted to speak was not yet there and they will do C-6 at 5:30PM. The rest follows the order of the day
