They can even amend the name to be C-6 (+18) as they are trying to screw us allspyfy said:

April 13th proceedings summary:
- Speaker ruled that proposed amendment that affects residency by Senator Eaton is not Out of Order.
- Senate chamber voted on amendment. Amendment failed 28-51(?). So we are back 3/5 with no 183 day requirement.
- New amendment proposed by another Conservative senator.
-- Adds ability to take away citizenship as a form of punishment for terrorism. However victim can appeal.
- Adjourned.
Next Steps:
- Debate on this amendment in May. I expect this to be quite fierce as this was one of main points of this bill.
- Vote on amendment.
- More debate on entire bill c6. Although there is every chance of new amendments to be introduced, I do not think it will happen. Just an educated guess.
- Final debate will not be long if no further amendment is proposed. Major debate will already have taken place for terrorism amendment. They will vote and send bill to HoC.
- If terrorism amendment is shot down, bill should pass HoC easily. Expect late May/June. If not, it is anyone's guess as this was one of the major promises of Trudeau government and they will have to decide whether it is worth fighting for or not.
Please check back on May and refrain from speculating in this thread.

So lets send now our tax returns to the CRA, start collecting citizenship application documents, study Discover Canada, and enter the numbers into the residency calculator.
And a some tweets to the conservative senators, like: We are watching you; would be appropriate.
