They supposedly will discuss it tomorrow but they will not. They will simply skip it just like they do 99% time for the 99% items on the order paper containing hundreds of items to be discussed.

No. There is a second reading to do. Then it goes to senate committee for study and review. Once that is done, assuming no changes or amendments to bill, it goes to 3rd reading, followed by senate vote.

So there will be still a long way to go ? How long will it take? I'm really fed up with the Canadian efficiency.

:) and :(....how long do u think it took the liberals to appoint a few senators(and they still havent appointed all the ones they have to). I so dont like saying this because i want bill c-6 to pass because of backlogs at IRCC but i wouldnt hold my breath if i were u. For some reason, no matter which govt comes to power, they are very poorly managed. Even c-24, such a flawed bill, and yet, that flaw passed quickly and the correction to their flaw is still pending.

If it contains amendments, would it go back to the House of Commons?

The whole thing is giant fiasco, since c-24 has been effective, just a handful of permanent residents have been eligible for citizenship and the processing backlog is now empty. This means that whenever c-6 comes to effect, there would be gigantic backlog starting from eligible applicants from 2015. The later this bill is implemented, the larger the backlog for eligible people will grow. This means that even when the bill is in effect, the waiting times will probably be over 2-3 years.

Yes. Any changes to the bill has to go back to commons for approval.
