Final vote on Bill C-30Adopté

18 Jun 2026

Voting on Bill C-30, a proposed law to carry out parts of the spring economic update from April 28, 2026.

159 Contre

This vote was about giving final approval to a proposed law called Bill C-30. This proposed law was designed to put into action some of the financial plans the government announced in its spring economic update from April 2026. It was the last step in the House of Commons before the proposed law could become a real law. This proposed law makes changes to how people pay taxes. For example, it now allows people to claim up to $10,000 off their taxes for certain costs they have because of their job. This means some workers could pay less tax. The law also changes some rules about how certain investments and business sales are taxed, which affects business owners and investors. Citizens should care about this vote because it directly affects their money. If you have work expenses, you might now be able to save money on your taxes. If you own a business or have investments, the rules for selling them have changed. This vote was crucial because it made these important tax changes happen across Canada.

C-22Law to Let Police Look at Your Online Data

150 Contre

This vote is not about the proposed law itself, but about how it moves through Parliament. The government wants to use a special rule to make sure Bill C-22, which is a proposed law about police accessing digital devices, gets approved quickly. This rule sets strict time limits for the committee that is studying the proposed law. It also limits how much time Members of Parliament can debate it in the House of Commons. The real-world impact of this vote is that Bill C-22 will likely become law much faster than usual. Because of the strict time limits, there will be less opportunity for Members of Parliament to discuss all the details, suggest changes, or raise concerns about the proposed law. This means the proposed law, which could change how police investigate crimes, might pass with less detailed review than it would normally receive. Citizens should care because Bill C-22 deals with important issues like privacy and police powers to access your personal information on phones and computers. When the government speeds up the process for a proposed law like this, it means there's less public discussion and scrutiny of its details. This vote affects how thoroughly our

This vote is about withdrawing Bill C-9, a proposed law to change the Criminal Code regarding hate propaganda, hate crime, and access to religious or cultural places.

132 Pour

184 Contre

This vote is about a proposed law called Bill C-9. This proposed law wants to make it easier to punish people who spread hate online. It also aims to better protect religious and cultural places from crimes motivated by hate. Normally, after the Senate makes changes to a proposed law, the House of Commons decides if they agree with those changes. But this vote is about a different idea. Someone wants to completely stop Bill C-9 from becoming a law. If this vote passes, Bill C-9 would be withdrawn, meaning it would be cancelled. If Bill C-9 is cancelled, the proposed changes to Canada's hate laws will not happen. This means the rules about online hate and protecting places of worship would stay the same as they are now. Citizens should care because this vote decides if Canada will update its laws to fight hate more effectively, or if it will keep the current rules.

This vote is about whether Members of Parliament agree with the main idea of a proposed law called Bill C-26. This proposed law wants to use government money to help build more homes across Canada. If MPs vote yes, it means they support the general plan to spend money on housing. If the vote passes, Bill C-26 will then go to a special committee of MPs. This committee will look at the proposed law very closely, suggest changes, and listen to what experts and regular Canadians have to say. If this proposed law eventually becomes a real law, it could lead to more houses being built, which might help make housing more affordable and easier to find. Many people in Canada are finding it hard to buy or rent a home because there aren't enough places to live, or they are too expensive. This proposed law, Bill C-26, is the government's plan to try and fix that by increasing the number of homes. Citizens should care because this vote decides if the government can move forward with spending public money to address a big problem that affects many families and their ability to find a safe and affordable place to live.

This vote is about a proposed law called Bill C-9. This proposed law wants to make new rules to fight hate in Canada. It aims to make it easier to punish people who spread hate, especially online. It also wants to protect religious and cultural places from crimes motivated by hate. The elected Members of Parliament already approved Bill C-9. But then, the Senate, which also reviews proposed laws, suggested a change to it. This vote is for the Members of Parliament to decide if they agree with the change the Senate wants to make to Bill C-9. If they agree to the Senate's change, Bill C-9 will be very close to becoming a real law. Once it is a law, it will change how Canada deals with hate speech and hate crimes. This means stronger protections for communities and places of worship. Citizens should care because this proposed law aims to make Canada a safer and more welcoming place for everyone, by taking a stronger stand against hate.

This vote is about whether a proposed law called C-267 should move forward. This proposed law wants to make sure that electronic products and home appliances, like your phone or fridge, are built to last longer. It also wants them to be easier to fix if they break. When Members of Parliament vote on "second reading," they are deciding if they agree with this main idea. If enough Members of Parliament vote yes, it means they support the idea. The proposed law will then go to a special group called a committee. This committee will study the proposed law very carefully, suggest changes, and hear from experts. If this proposed law eventually becomes a real law, it could mean you won't have to replace your electronics and appliances as often. This is important for everyday people because it could save you money. You might not have to buy new devices or appliances as frequently. It also helps the environment by reducing the amount of electronic waste we create. So, this vote is about getting more value from the products you buy and helping our planet.

This vote is about how a proposed law, Bill C-22, will be handled in Parliament. Bill C-22 is a proposed law about letting police get court orders to access digital devices like phones and computers to investigate crimes. This vote is an amendment, which means it suggests a big change to the plan for this proposed law. If this amendment passes, Bill C-22 will be split into two separate proposed laws: Bill C-22A and Bill C-22B. One part, Bill C-22A, which is about getting timely access to data, would be sped up. Parliament would set strict time limits for discussing it, meaning it could become law sooner. The other part, Bill C-22B, which deals with what electronic companies must do, would be slowed down. A committee would study it for longer and hear from more experts before it moves forward. Citizens should care because this vote affects how quickly and carefully important proposed laws are discussed. The original Bill C-22 could change police powers and how your digital privacy is protected. By splitting the proposed law and changing its timeline, Parliament is deciding which parts are more urgent and which need more public input and debate. This vote shows how the government manages its work and prioritizes different parts of a complex issue that affects everyone's privacy and safety.

This vote is about how the government runs its daily meeting. When members vote on "proceeding to the orders of the day," they are deciding if they should stop whatever they are currently talking about and move on to the main list of things they planned to discuss and vote on for that day. Think of it like deciding to move from a general chat to the actual agenda of a meeting. If this vote passes, the members will start debating and voting on important proposed laws, committee reports, or other official government business that was scheduled. This means the work of the government moves forward. If the vote fails, the members will continue discussing whatever they were talking about before this motion was brought up. This could mean delays in getting to important proposed laws that affect Canadians.

If they vote yes, they go home and stop all their work, like debating proposed laws or asking questions, until the next scheduled meeting. If the vote passes, Parliament stops right away. No more decisions or debates happen until later. If it fails, they keep working. Sometimes, this vote is just a normal way to end the day. Other times, politicians might use it as a trick to stop a debate or prevent a vote on a proposed law they don't like. You should care because this vote affects when and how important decisions are made in Canada. It can show if politicians want to keep working on an issue or if they want to put it off. It can also be a sign of disagreement if one group of politicians wants to keep working and another wants to stop.

164 Pour

156 Contre

This vote is not directly about whether to spend money on housing. Instead, it's about how a proposed law called Bill C-26 will be handled in Parliament. Bill C-26 is about spending government money to help build more houses. This vote is a special request to speed up the process for Bill C-26, meaning the usual steps for reviewing and debating a proposed law would be mostly skipped. If this vote passes, Bill C-26 will move through the House of Commons much faster than normal. This means there will be very little time for members of Parliament to debate the details of the proposed law, suggest changes, or have it carefully reviewed by a committee. The proposed law to spend money on housing could become approved by the House of Commons almost immediately after its main idea is first debated and voted on. Citizens should care because this vote affects how thoroughly a proposed law is examined before it becomes real. When a proposed law is fast-tracked, it means there's less opportunity for different viewpoints to be heard, for potential problems to be found, or for improvements to be made. While speeding up a proposed law might seem good for urgent issues like housing, it also means less public discussion and less detailed review of how government money will be spent and what the rules will be.

This vote is about whether Members of Parliament should stop talking about a specific government item, called "Government Business No. 11." It's a way to end the discussion and move quickly to a decision. The government wants to stop the debate, while other parties might want to keep discussing it. If this vote passes, it means MPs will have less time to talk about "Government Business No. 11." They won't be able to ask as many questions or suggest as many changes. This allows the government to move forward faster with its plans. If the vote fails, the discussion will continue. You should care about this because it affects how much thought and discussion goes into government decisions. When debate is cut short, there's less chance for different viewpoints to be heard or for problems to be found. It can mean the government is using its power to quickly pass something without full public discussion.

This vote is about how much more time Members of Parliament will spend discussing a proposed law called Bill C-9.

The proposed law has already been discussed in the House of Commons and the Senate, which is Canada's other parliamentary chamber. The Senate suggested some changes to Bill C-9. Now, the House of Commons needs to decide if they agree with those changes. This vote means they will only spend five more hours talking about these changes before they have to make a final decision. So, this vote isn't about the proposed law itself, but about speeding up the process. It limits how much more debate can happen on the Senate's suggested changes to Bill C-9. Once the five hours are up, Members of Parliament will have to vote on the changes without any more discussion. Citizens should care because this vote affects how quickly a proposed law about hate crimes and hate propaganda moves forward. If you care about how Canada deals with hate speech and protecting religious places, then how quickly this proposed law is finalized matters.

This vote is not about whether the tax changes in proposed law C-30 are good or bad. Instead, it's about changing the rules for how politicians will discuss and decide on proposed law C-30. Proposed law C-30 is currently being studied by a smaller group of politicians called a committee. This vote is about changing the plan for how that committee, and then all politicians, will handle the proposed law. It's about adjusting the timeline or specific steps in the process. If this change to the rules passes, it will affect how quickly or slowly proposed law C-30 moves forward. Proposed law C-30 suggests changes to taxes, like letting people deduct up to $10,000 for certain work expenses and changing rules for business transfers. How this vote turns out could mean these tax changes are decided on sooner or later. It could also affect how much time politicians have to suggest improvements or hear from experts and the public about the proposed law. You should care because proposed law C-30 could affect your money, especially if you have work-related expenses or own a business.

This vote is about a very specific change to a proposed law called Bill C-30. Bill C-30 is about making changes to Canada's tax rules. For example, it wants to let people claim up to $10,000 for certain work expenses, and it also changes some rules about how capital gains (money made from selling investments) and business transfers are taxed. This particular vote isn't about the main ideas of Bill C-30, but rather about a small tweak to an amendment (a proposed change) that someone wants to make to the bill. It's like arguing over one specific sentence in a larger document. This vote decides if a tiny part of an amendment will be included or left out. If this small change passes, it means the larger amendment will affect fewer things in the proposed tax law. If it fails, the amendment will affect more things. While it seems like a small detail, these kinds of votes add up to shape the final version of Bill C-30. The final version of Bill C-30 will directly affect how much tax Canadians pay and what deductions they can claim. Citizens should care because Bill C-30 is all about taxes, which affects everyone's money. Even small changes, like the one being voted on here, can influence the final rules that will impact your wallet, your business, or your ability to claim certain expenses.

This proposed law is the final agreement for the Tłegǫ́hłı̨ Got’įnę to govern themselves.

This vote is about a proposed law called the Tłegǫ́hłı̨ Got’įnę Act. This proposed law would make a self-government agreement official for the Tłegǫ́hłı̨ Got’įnę First Nation. A self-government agreement means this Indigenous community would have more control over its own affairs, like education, healthcare, and how they manage their land, instead of the federal government making all the decisions. The motion to have it "carried on division" means that while the proposed law passed, not all members of Parliament fully agreed with it. Instead of a simple voice vote, some wanted their disagreement or concerns to be noted, even if they didn't force a full recorded vote where every single MP's name is called out. It shows there wasn't complete agreement, but enough support for it to move forward. If this proposed law becomes official, it will have a big impact on the Tłegǫ́hłı̨ Got’įnę First Nation.

This vote was about a proposed new law called Bill C-232. This proposed law wanted to change how prisoners in maximum security jails are handled. The main idea was to make it much harder for very dangerous criminals to be moved from a maximum security prison to a lower security one, like a medium or minimum security jail. If this proposed law had passed, it would have meant that prisoners considered very dangerous would stay in the highest security prisons for longer. The goal was to keep these criminals locked up more securely and prevent them from being transferred to places where they might have more freedom or pose a risk.

It's about making sure that dangerous criminals are kept in the right kind of prison to protect communities. It also touches on how we balance punishment, safety, and the possibility of rehabilitation for prisoners.

This could lead to new programs or efforts to get more houses built, which might help more people find a place to live or make housing prices less expensive. Citizens should care about this vote because housing affects everyone. Whether you are looking for a home, renting, or already own one, the cost and availability of housing are very important. This proposed law tries to make housing more accessible and affordable for Canadians. Your elected officials are deciding if they support this plan to tackle the housing shortage.

Government Business No. 10 is about making Parliament sit until midnight on most days in June.

325 Pour

This vote is about changing the work schedule for Members of Parliament (MPs) for a short time in June 2026. Usually, the House of Commons has set hours for debates and votes. This motion asks MPs to work much longer hours each day, staying until midnight on most days and until 8 p.m. on Fridays. The real impact is that MPs will spend more time in the House of Commons. This allows them to debate and vote on more proposed laws and other important government business in a shorter period. Governments often propose these longer hours when they have a lot of work they want to finish before a break, like the summer holidays. Citizens should care because it means the government wants to speed up its work and pass proposed laws more quickly. This could mean less time for detailed discussions on important issues. It also shows how the government manages its time and priorities, especially when trying to get its agenda done before the end of the parliamentary session.

On one hand, it helps get important proposed laws like Bill C-20 passed quickly, especially if many people agree it's urgent. On the other hand, some people might worry that not enough time was spent discussing all the details and possible problems with the proposed law.

Approving more government money for the 2026-27 year.

This vote is about approving extra money the government wants to spend for the future year 2026-27. Think of it like a family budget. The government makes a main budget for the year, but sometimes things come up later, or costs change. These "Supplementary Estimates" are like asking for an update to that budget, requesting more funds for different government programs and services. When the vote mentions "clause 2" through "clause 6" and "schedule 1," it's referring to parts of a proposed law that allows this spending. The "schedule" would list the specific amounts of money for different government departments and what they plan to spend it on. Each "clause" then gives the government the legal power to spend those amounts. So, this vote is about saying "yes" or "no" to these specific spending plans. The real-world impact is huge because this vote directly decides how your tax dollars will be used. If these clauses pass, the government gets the green light to spend money on everything from healthcare, social programs, and infrastructure projects to defense and environmental initiatives.
