Use Twitter to Track the Passage of a Bill Through the House of Commons

While LEGISinfo is an excellent tool for tracking federal legislation, it does not get updated the moment that there is a change to a bill. But sometimes you need to have the information on the status of a bill as fast as is humanly possible.

The House of Commons In the Chamber (@HoCChamber) Twitter account provides “regular updates about proceedings of the House of Commons Chamber.” (The French equivalent can be found at https://twitter.com/CdcChambre.) The account is updated as events happen which makes it a very useful tool for tracking a bill listed on that day’s agenda.

The Senate equivalent is https://twitter.com/SenateCA (English) or https://twitter.com/SenatCA (French).
