Bill C-6: Senate stage

[septimius]

Those are not facts

Didn't say they were facts. The only fact stated in my response was the unpopularity of the bill among conservatives. The rest were observations. Read carefully,

A paragraph from Senate May 10, 2017 - Debates (Question Period)

Senate Amendment to Bill C-6
Hon. Ratna Omidvar: Honourable senators, I'm going to revert to practice and my question will be to the Leader of the Government in the Senate, Senator Harder.

Today the Federal Court decided a very important case that weighs in on our work. The case is Hassouna et al v. The Minister of Citizenship and Immigration. It challenged the government's citizen revocation process. Madam Justice Jocelyn Gagné ruled in favour of the litigants and struck down the relevant sections of the Citizenship Act. She found that the government's process to revoke citizenship on grounds of fraud or false representation violated a constitutional statute. The decision confirms that the Senate was correct and the government's process does not comply with the Bill of Rights, section 2(e).

Four key principles outlined by Justice Gagné are all found within the Senate's amendments to Bill C-6.

Will the government respect the Senate's amendment to restore due process?

Hon. Peter Harder (Government Representative in the Senate): I thank the honourable senator for her question. Indeed the judgment of the Federal Court is an important one. The minister is reviewing the judgment and will, at the appropriate time, come forward with specific comments.

With regard to the question and the amendments put forward by the Senate, as senators will well know from both the presence of the former minister and this minister as well as committee consideration of Bill C-6, the government expressed its openness to receive amendments with respect to right of review. The government is considering the Senate bill, as amended, and will be making a decision very shortly.

Hello House,
Under the new 3/5 years requirement, is there still a minimum yearly residency of 183 days?
Thanks in advance for your response.

Is this a good news or bad ?

Is this a good news or bad ?

It appears to be good news. Harder says that the government will come with a decision regarding the amendments very quickly and is open to the revocation process amendment

Seconding a motion is a formal procedure that isn't really relevant for the process. In fact, bills are often discussed while the person who seconded a motion isn't present. Also, Hussen's travel plans weren't ad-hoc but planned ahead. So they wouldn't have put it on there in the first place if they required him to be there.

you are profesional how you explain and thank you

Anything on the agenda for the next week ?

Looks like nothing re C-6 this week. And HoC is not sitting next week. Coming back on May 29. We just need to be patient.

The projected order of business makes ref to discussing senate amendments contained in the journal for may 4th. That journal actually includes C6. I don't think it will be discussed but it's possible it could be mentioned or introduced today.
