Bill C-31 — Another Law Passes to Enact the 2025 Budget

This proposed law, called "Budget 2025 Implementation Act, No. 2," would change many existing tax and finance laws. It would change how income tax, excise tax, and luxury taxes work. It also affects rules for banks and other financial companies, government contracts, bankruptcies, labor laws, and human rights. These changes would affect individuals, businesses, financial institutions, and government agencies. For example, there are changes to rules about claiming moving expenses for students and how bankruptcies are handled. There are also changes to how companies can deduct certain expenses related to natural resources. This proposed law matters because it touches on many aspects of daily life and business. It could change how much tax people and companies pay, how financial institutions operate, and how the government handles contracts. It also includes the creation of a Defence Investment Agency.
