Senate Overload and Lottery Reform

from Ottawa News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

The Senate’s drowning in bills—so many that the system’s breaking. To fix it, they’re seriously considering a lottery to pick which bills get debated, strict time limits, and even capping how many bills can be on the floor at once. Once known as the “chamber of sober second thought,” it’s now being called the “chamber of first thoughts,” as quality debate slips away under the weight of overload. A committee is hashing out solutions, with senators pushing for real reform to make sure only the most important bills get attention.
