What statement describes a difference between the legislative procedures of the House of Representatives and the Senate?

Who has more power House of Representatives or the Senate?
Neither really has "more" power. They have differentpowers. Neither of them can really "overrule" the other, because generally they have to agree for anything to happen. For example, only the House can impeach an elected official, but only the Senate can convict someone who has been impeached. The House and Senate must agree in order to remove someone from office; if the House impeaches them but the Senate doesn't convict them, then nothing happens, and if the House doesn't impeach them in the first place then the Senate can't convict them so again nothing happens.There are certain things that are reserved to either the House or Senate, but again, it's not really a question of "more power".That said: Senators serve (normally) for six years, while Representatives serve for only two. There are far fewer Senators than Representatives, so each Senator's vote has more "weight" than each Representative's does. The Senate is considered the "Upper" chamber of the Legislative branch. For all these reasons, it's not entirely wrong to say the Senate has more power ... but it's not entirely right, either.

What do Canadian Senators do?
Senators review bills passed by the elected House of Commons.The powers of the Senate and the House of Commons are equal, with two exceptions: (a) the Senate may not propose money bills that would need a Royal Recommendation, or amend a money bill in such a way that would cause it to need a new Royal Recommendation; and (b) the Senate may not suspend some types of constitutional amendments for more than one hundred eighty days.In most circumstances, the Senate bows to the democratic weight of the House of Commons when disagreements between the two Houses arise. However, the Senate is nonetheless empowered to defeat bills (even budget implementation bills) passed by the House of Commons, or to insist upon amendments that the Senate favours. If the Senate and House of Commons cannot agree on a bill, it cannot be presented for royal assent to become law.
