Government Business No. 12—Proceedings on Bill C-30

Bill C-30, Spring Economic Update 2026 Implementation Act · Motion on how the bill proceeds · now law Where it stands

This debate was on Bill C-30, the Spring Economic Update 2026 Implementation Act, which includes tax changes such as a bigger Labour Mobility Deduction for tradespeople, a permanent capital gains exemption for sales to employee ownership trusts, temporary zero excise tax on gasoline and diesel, a two-year extension of caps on alcohol excise duties, and measures on employment insurance, CPP rates, greenhouse buildings, and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency’s mandate. Liberals said the bill would make life more affordable and help tariff-hit industries, and urged quick passage, arguing the Conservatives were stalling in committee. Conservatives said the government is spending and borrowing too much, that the economy is in a recession, and that the bill does not help farmers, workers, or the steel industry, with trade with the United States left unaddressed. Bloc Québécois members questioned the CFIA mandate change on pesticide approvals and asked about the government’s environmental record, and part of the debate also went to the government’s use of time limits on debate and procedural exchanges about that.Written by AI from the debate.
