Companion to the Rules of the Senate of Canada .: Y9-2/1-2013E-PDF

"The purpose of the Companion to the Rules of the Senate is to provide senators with additional sources of information with respect to Senate parliamentary procedures. The Rules of the Senate derive from constitutional and statutory sources, as well as parliamentary conventions, traditions and usages, and the practices adopted from time to time. The status of individual rules is relevant in terms of their legal implications and the procedures for amending them. Among others, the Rules reflect such underlying principles as the central role of Parliament, the rule of law and the independence of each chamber in our bicameral system" -- Clerk's introduction, p. iii.
