The concern for "how the Liberal government will ensure its bills, which must pass in both the House and the Senate, will become law without the traditional party system in the Red Chamber" is just silly. Throughout Canadian history the governing party has changed from time to time, and the new governing party has often found itself dealing with a Senate dominated by the outgoing party. The only time this has ever caused a problem was when Liberal senators decided they didn't like Mulroney's GST.

Likewise, the Conservative complaint that  the government is trying to “destroy the Senate opposition” " is, while factually accurate, silly. The aim of an independent Senate is to have Senators who are neither government nor opposition; naturally, this requires abolition not just of the opposition in the Senate but of the very concept of "the opposition in the Senate".
