Legislative Councillors must also hold the same qualifications as members of the Canadian Senate (except that their property need only be in the district in which the division is situated), and their seats are vacated in the same circumstances. 2. The only provision affecting the powers of the Legis- lative Council is that contained in s. 53 of the British North America Act, which is applied by s. 90 to the provinces, and which provides that Bills for appropriating any part of the public revenue or for imposing any tax or impost shall originate in the Lower House. 3. No provision exists for the adjustment of differences between the two Chambers of the Legislature of Quebec.
