That's the substantive part of it. The politics of it is that the government is holding up every committee in the House, all of the work of Parliament outside of question period and the debates in the House, which is relatively slow moving stuff. Other than that, everything is frozen. Nothing is going to get done. Why? It's because the government has decided that it is going to make this change, and it is going to ram it through no matter what the cost.
Where the government has miscalculated is believing that we, in the opposition, would just roll over. That's not going to happen. The government will win at the end of the day.
