What This Vote Is Really About

This vote is about how long the House of Commons will spend discussing Bill C-13. Bill C-13 is a proposed law that wants to update the rules about Canada's official languages, English and French. The government wants to limit the amount of time that Members of Parliament can debate and propose changes to Bill C-13. If the vote passes, there will be less time to discuss the proposed law. If the vote fails, there will be more time to discuss the proposed law. This matters because the amount of time spent debating a law can affect what the final law looks like. More debate could mean more changes to the proposed law. Less debate could mean the proposed law passes faster, but with fewer changes. People who care about the Official Languages Act should pay attention to this vote.
