Senate hears calls for Liberal anti-hate bill to include 'residential school denialism,' hammer and sickle

Some people want the government to add "residential school denialism" and the hammer and sickle to a new anti-hate law. The law already bans symbols connected to terrorist groups and the swastika. Adding these symbols could make it illegal to publicly deny the harm caused by residential schools or display symbols of communism.

Vote on Bill S-233 — approve in principleAdopté
27 May 2026

Bill S-233 would make it a crime to attack health workers and first responders.

332 Pour

This vote is about a proposed law called Bill S-233. It aims to change the rules in the Criminal Code about assaults. Right now, if someone attacks a healthcare worker (like a nurse or doctor) or a first responder (like a paramedic or firefighter), the person who attacked them could be charged with a crime. Bill S-233 wants to make the penalties for attacking these workers more serious. The idea is to better protect people who help us when we're sick or in danger. If Members of Parliament vote yes, Bill S-233 will go to a committee for a closer look. The committee will study the proposed law and might make changes. Citizens should care because this could affect the safety of the people who provide essential services in our communities.

Opposition challengeRejeté
27 May 2026

The opposition wants to get rid of federal taxes on gas and diesel, including the GST, and stop the Clean Fuel Standard to help people save money.

138 Pour
195 Contre

This vote is about whether the government should stop charging federal taxes on gasoline and diesel fuel for the rest of the year. It also asks the government to get rid of the Clean Fuel Standard forever. The people who proposed this vote think gas prices are too high in Canada compared to the United States. They believe that getting rid of these taxes would make gas cheaper and help families save money. They also think the Clean Fuel Standard, which is meant to make fuels cleaner, should be cancelled. If this vote passes, it would mean you pay less at the pump for gas and diesel. This could save you money each time you fill up your car. However, the government might have less money to spend on other things if they stop collecting these taxes. The Clean Fuel Standard is connected to Bill C-234, so cancelling it could affect efforts to fight climate change.

Vote on Bill C-30 — approve in principleAdopté
26 May 2026

Bill C-30 is being discussed to put parts of the spring economic update from April 28, 2026 into law.

170 Pour
164 Contre

This vote is about whether to move forward with Bill C-30. This proposed law is about changes to taxes that were first talked about in the government's economic update from April. If Members of Parliament vote yes, it means they agree the ideas in the proposed law are worth considering further. The proposed law will then go to the Finance Committee, a group of MPs who will study it closely. They can make changes to the proposed law. This matters to you because Bill C-30 could change how much tax you pay. For example, it might let you deduct some work expenses, saving you money. It also changes some rules for businesses. So, this vote is an important step in deciding if these tax changes will actually happen.

The House is voting on Bill C-30, a proposed law about the spring budget, but some people don't like it because they think it spends too much money and makes life more expensive.

137 Pour
197 Contre

This vote is about whether to move forward with Bill C-30, a proposed law that includes tax changes. The government says these changes will help the economy. However, some Members of Parliament don't like the proposed law. They think it spends too much money and will make inflation worse. They also believe it doesn't do enough to help people afford things like groceries and gas. This vote is their way of saying they don't support the bill because of these concerns. If this vote passes, it means the proposed law will not continue through the process to potentially become law. Citizens should care because this proposed law deals with taxes and how the government spends money, which affects everyone's finances.

Vote to send Bill C-11 back to committeeRejeté
25 May 2026

Send Bill C-11 back to committee to rethink parts about military sexual assault, based on what survivors and experts said.

160 Pour
178 Contre

This vote is about fixing some problems with a proposed law called Bill C-11. This law wants to change how the military handles justice, especially for serious issues like sexual assault. Some people who survived sexual assault in the military, and experts in military law, spoke to a committee about Bill C-11. They had ideas on how to make the law better. Now, some Members of Parliament want to send parts of the law back to the committee. This would give the committee a chance to change those parts to better reflect what the survivors and experts said. The parts they want to change deal with things like how investigations and trials are run. If this vote passes, it means the committee will look at those sections of Bill C-11 again and try to improve them. If it fails, the proposed law will move forward without those changes. This is important because it affects how the military handles serious crimes and whether the system is fair to everyone involved.
