Hi - I have a question that I have asked in other groups but interested to get people's opinion on:

If you are eligible to apply for citizenship now, would you wait till C-6 passes or do you go ahead and submit your application?

Cheers,
I would say apply now. You might be worried about C24 clauses in place such as intent to reside, but keep in mind that once C6 passes, it will eliminate all such clauses. For everyone not just those applying under C6.

Supposing that the Conservative caucus pushes for splitting the Bill at next week's resumption of its Third Reading debate, does anyone know whether Senators Omidvar/ McCoy have a plan worked out to go down that route without undue (i.e., yet more) agonising delay?

The next reading is next week but ball park when will this be given royal ascent and what is the cause for such a delay as has been incurred?

Is today's meeting going to be on LIVE? If YES, then does anybody know where I can find the link to watch the discussion?
There's always a live audio-only broadcast from the Senate Chamber during their sittings. Just go on the official Senate of Canada website, go to the In The Chamber section, then scroll down to find the Listen tab towards the bottom. I listened to today's broadcast and heard them adjourn C-6, yet again, to the Senate's next sitting (tomorrow). Senator Frum spoke vehemently against the Bill, yet again, and this time she also spoke vehemently against Senator McCoy's suggested Amendments. Senator Omidvar appears to be as hapless and lost and unsure what to do as she was at the beginning of the long-running Second Reading if C-6.
