Bill C-6: Senate stage

[punk]

Oh I was planning to go today as well. I thought it was at the same time as yesterday, but looking at it. It's already done

 

[spiritsoul]

Am I right that they didn't report the bill C-6 at the Chamber today, I missed that part.

They already passed the Bills – Reports of Committees!!!

you are welcome. Remember I said "expectation". Afterall we are dealing with the government and if there is one thing they do well, it is that they take their time to do it.

That's reasonable because only two weeks left for Senate sitting in March, and only two weeks sitting in April.

So according to Sen Jaffer, the bill will be back in chamber on Tuesday, so the amendment will be introduced then

do you it will pass by 2017 end

Yes for sure. Completely another matter if it will be implemented in 2017 though. I am still hoping July but likely Jan 2018.

Any particular reasons you think the bill will be done only by Jan 2018? Why Jan? It's pretty much a year from now!
Looking at similar bills' life-time in Senate, I'd say the third reading and the royal assent don't take that much time.

There is a difference between the bill *passing* and being *implemented*. The bill may pass in the next few months, but it won't be in effect till it gets implemented. I think the forum member was talking about it being implemented by Jan 2018, meaning new application forms available.

But the Minister said yesterday that they have already started the process of reversal of the revocation of citizenship of the terrorist who lost it. So I too think that implementation will be way faster than people think

Implementation depends on which clauses you are referring to. Most clauses would be implemented immediately after it becomes law. The only one that might take time is the 3/5 rule due to the systemic changes required to accommodate it.

Well, I hope implementation is faster. Especially given they just need to revert it to the already once established system of 3/5 yrs. The 4/6 took a year to implement probably because the entire process had to be defined from scratch.
