Currently the Canadian Senate is very unpopular. Members are appointed for life by the Governor General (though "on advice" of the Prime Minister"). It is seen as:
1) a retirement home for party loyalists
2) a stonewalling device for legislation
3) waste of taxpayers' money
In fact, the polls say that 90% of Canadians (including me, a political junkie) can't name one single senator!!! What sould be done with it?
I go with Option 2. Elected, Equal, Effective...
