My only concern is, amendments are so huge, they wont send it back to committee, as this is possible as per Senate procedures, which will delay the bill significantly at this point.
Just "be patient" and "count your blessing" and stop being "selfish and narcissistic" and "ignorant" - that's not my answer to your concern, just some answers I am guessing you will get from some people here

Exactly, she said gonna pass by june.
There is time dont worry

Even she tweeted that c6 must be implemented quickly because people had waited long

what it better to become law now and wait 1 year to be implemented or wait 4 months and get implemented

In week of March 28, we will have a better picture if this bill would be done in April or would go towards May/June. I wish it is dealt by April and implemented July 1st.

What is her point of imposing amendments RIGHT NOW? after we were almost there?

When did she say that? And it doesn't mean anything if it was said with the word "hopefully" in the same sentence

And I think she would also say / agree that people have been waiting for world peace for too long, but that doesn't mean we will see that any time soon

That's right. Her hoping means nothing. She herself cannot know how long it'll take. I'm just hoping she keeps her word. I remember reading somewhere that she said she would convert the amendment into a bill if it delays C6 by a lot ... something along these lines.

no, she said if the amendment is defeated, she will do a separate bill. bill c-6 is not read the third time but to vote on the amendment now. that means bill won't proceed until the amendment has a conclusion.

If the Liberal and independent senators want to show the least consideration to the majority of immigrants who suffered from the previous government, they should defeat amendments at this point

i guess 'suffer' is too strong a word. we are not suffering as we still like living and working here, and enjoy most of the equal rights as other Canadians. but it is true we don't have too much flexibility. we don't go abroad for long vacations or visit family back in the original country because that will delay becoming a citizen. besides, we can not participate in elections. government jobs may also want citizens as a priority...BTW, i have lived here 3.5 years in the past 5 years. I could not apply under c-24, and I don't think that c-6 will make my application any sooner.

Yes in that tweet, she had mentioned hopefully in front maybe because she would not like to firmly commit to a time, also in another tweet she had mentioned that once the debates reach a certain level or number the leader of the government can step in and close the debate...so I would think that since the whole bill was debated extensively by the Tories in the second reading it should not need more than one day. It is the amendment that needs a fresh debate which will take up time.

@mego149 After a while the leader of the government can limit the debate.

@Ipfreely

To be honest you are optimistic members, but even if its delayed until September or December 2017 the bill itself is so great.
This amendment is very important for anyone, because who is gonna judge you are guilty or not, common be logic.

They should debate it on 28 and 29 then vote for it on 30th of march just before easter 2 weeks holiday, if its transferred to HoC by april/early may
then the bill is going on the right track, there is enough of time until 31 July 2017.

Guys take it easy once its sent to HoC then the bill is over it will be approved by HoC then goes to the governor.

21 senates sitting between 29 March to 1 July, Take it easy 8)

Thanks Cap!!

It's unfathomable a lot are unhappy that bill doesn't suit their wait time. I'm wondering if many thinks law creation are the same as tv dinners.
May I remind you all that your opinions weigh as much as the others who don't see it your way. These forums are designed to distract us from the "long" waiting periods, whether it's reality or not.
