Senators in the Conservative majority are pondering whether to amend the motion to suspend senators Mike Duffy, Pamela Wallin and Patrick Brazeau, to maybe give them a break. Government Leader in the Senate Claude Carignan says the caucus could craft new motions tomorrow (Monday) as long as there is consensus among party members. The announcement has infuriated Senate Opposition Leader James Cowan. “Instead of having this thing dealt with in the Senate, where Sen. Carignan has said it should be done . . . now it’s going to be settled in the Conservative caucus in private,” Cowan complained.
