In Canada senators are not elected and, therefore, do not have to try to woo voters. There is also little to no ability to force them to toe the party line.
This particular senator was a former judge and had some questions. What we don't know is if the questions came from him directly or if his arm was twisted.
Senator Pierre Dalphond, who was appointed by JT, was asking for the justification of invoking the Act.
In other words, he asked JT to show his hand, so JT folded rather than try to justify his actions.
