BREAKING NEWS Bill C-6 finally passed in HoC, Now reading in Senate

[emamabd]

yes but i hope this bill will not bring us back to 2 years waiting time in the processing step , that the big matter now

There may not be may not be much of a difference, unless if you are already very close to qualifying under the 4 years rule.
4 (years to qualify) + 1 (year processing) = 3 (years to qualify) + 2 (years processing)

the end result seems to be similar...but at least Bill C-6 will remove the "intent to reside" clause.

You are just one of a few people in this situation. They cannot take that into consideration when introducing new laws. At the end of the day, waiting a couple more years won't end your life ..

easy to say so why you are crying for 3/5 one year more is not problem ,

I had trouble logging into listen to the debate. Judging by the comments it was discussed, i'm guessing it was adjourned until next week??

Well, isn't the Senate usually in session on Tue, Wed and Thu anyway?

No need to guess, it is a guarantee that it will be skipped or pushed to the next day/week/month/year/decade/century ....

Sen. Ringuette (Liberal). We're safe.

Just to mention, Government bills don't adjourn in Senators' names. Even if a specific Senator moved to adjourn, another Senator can open the debate at any time later on.

I am however confident that the non-Conservative Senators are willing to delay the bill's progress to the full appointment of the vacant seats, probably by mid of November 2016. I would therefore say that the bill C-6 might fully pass by December 2016.

I have never met someone more optimistic than you Keep up the high spirits. Meanwhile, in reality land, bill C-6 will most probably not pass by December 2016. The way things are going, there might be amendments required, and that will shift the process into a new cycle.
