Senators returned to the upper chamber on Tuesday and quickly began debating a motion that would see the Senate accept Bill C-11, the Online Streaming Act, without insisting on further changes -- as the minister responsible tells them, 'it's time to move on.'

Senators returned to the upper chamber on Tuesday and quickly began debating a motion that would see the Senate accept Bill C-11, the Online Streaming Act, without insisting on further changes -- as the minister responsible tells them, "it's time to move on."

After a few hours of debate, Senators moved on without resolution. Though, after years of discussion, study, and modifications to the initial piece of legislation, it appears there's some desire within the Senate to see this chapter come to an end soon. Despite this view, barring further procedural efforts, the Conservative Senate caucus won't have the numbers to overturn the motion once it comes to a vote.

In an interview on CP24 on Monday, Rodriguez said the bill won't change "anything" for individual users posting online, just the platforms. Speaking to reporters on Tuesday in Ottawa, he said he's confident the bill will become law this week.
