Absolutely! The Senate of Canada can not only delay bills, but it can also make any amendments it so chooses, or it can defeat a bill entirely. The House of Commons has no way to pass a bill without the agreement of the Senate. (The only exception is for some types of constitutional amendments, where the Senate has only a suspensive veto of 180 days.)

A bill to raise individual taxes is introduced into senate. The bill is given a number and assigned to the senate budget committee for consideration.The bill is recommended for passage and is debated by the full senate.

What is a method of defeating a bill in which a senator talks until a majority either abandons the bill or agrees to modify it?
This tactic is known as a filibuster. It can only be used in the US Senate, not the House of the Representatives (because the House has rules that place limits on the length of debate). Also, if a vast majority of the Senate is in favor of the bill, they can defeat the filibuster with another tactic known as a cloture petition.

Is their a way a bill in the senate can be passed with only 50 votes?
I am assuming you mean if the 100 members of the Senate were to vote 50 in favor of a bill and 50 against it. In that case, it would be the responsibility of the President of the Senate, who is the Vice President of the United States, to cast the tie breaking vote. Assuming the Vice President voted in favor of the bill, it would pass. By the way, the only time the Vice President is allowed to vote is to break ties.
