This proposed law, Bill C-50, wants to make sure people are responsible, open, and involved in creating good, lasting jobs and growing the economy while reducing pollution.

What This Vote Is Really About

This vote is about a proposed law called Bill C-50. The law wants to make sure Canada creates good, long-lasting jobs as we try to have a "net-zero" economy. Net-zero means we take as much pollution out of the air as we put in. The government wants to plan carefully and be open about how it will reach net-zero. It also wants to hear from workers and other people about the best way to do this. Bill C-50 would force the government to set clear goals and report on its progress. This vote is on a small change to Bill C-50. Some Members of Parliament want to change the wording of the proposed law. This specific change is called "Motion 60". How MPs vote on this change will affect exactly what the law says and how the government acts. Citizens should care because this law could affect jobs and the environment in the future.
