'Twas the C-6 discussion, when all thro' the senate house
Not a Liberal creature was stirring, not even a mouse;
The same Con points recycled with care,
In hopes that C-6 end soon would be there;
The indepedent senators were confused all snug in their beds,
While visions of angry Linda Frum haunted their heads
If we had to listen to polls Clinton would be President of the US and Brexit a far utopy from the past... But still ... Here we are !
However, I agree with something in this article, and that's one of the reasons this topic is now almost 50 pages long: Liberals suck at Parliament ...
Believe me folks, C-6 will pass for sure soon after this article. Independent senator would put some thoughts before vote but after this all independent senators will vote in favor of c-6. Senators never like someone to order or suggest them what to do. Frum did a mistake and we all will see the positive outcome soon.
There is a Senate sitting today from 6:00 to 10:00 PM EST
Bill C-6 is No. 2 on the Second Reading List.
Previously:
The Bill was adjourned after Sen. Frum's speech by Sen. Lang. Most probably he will be preparing a similar speech along the same lines; same recycled arguments. This can be a never-ending story unless a Liberal Senator steps in and defends the bill. Independent Senators will most probably keep quiet after Sen. Frum warned them to not get involved (indirectly).
Will Sen. Lang address the bill or drag it on for a few more sessions, maybe long enough to be skipped until 2017? We will find out tonight!

The main thing they are attacking is the terrorist part of the bill - personally I have no problem with it, but that's just a small part of the bill and they are holding the entire bill hostage because of it
