Now it will be introduced in the senate after the summer break and
then the senate will pass it.
after that it has to be ordained and receive royal assent.
maybe then it comes into effect.
i am hoping all these happen before end of nov 2001, that is when
my 6 months are up and I need to move back to vancouver.

I think this session is over by today, the summer recess lasts
until sept 15. I think by the end of today the senate would have
completed 2 readings and referred the bill to a commitee.

This is what most of us are interested in knowin\' \'bout C-11 as \'n when it becomes applicable, gives us more flexibility to work and stay outta Canada:

Residency requirement calculated over five-year period instead of one. The current Act deems people out of Canada for more than 183 days in any 12-month period to have abandoned Canada as their place of permanent residence unless they can establish they did not intend to abandon Canada. Section 28 of Bill C-11 requires permanent residents to be present in Canada for at least 730 days in every five-year period. Permanent residents will be able to count, as part of the required 730 days, time spent abroad in certain circumstances such as working for a Canadian company or the Canadian or a provincial government or accompanying their Canadian spouse, common-law partner or, in the case of a child, parents. This allows permanent residents a greater degree of flexibility over their personal or business affairs that is necessary in a world where routine international travel, work periods abroad and multinational business ties are becoming commonplace.
