What They Voted On

If a member participating in person wishes that the motion be carried or carried on division, or if a member of a recognized party participating in person wishes to request a recorded division, I would invite them to rise and indicate it to the Chair.

What This Vote Is Really About

This vote is about whether to pass a proposed law called Bill C-13. This law would add the United Kingdom to a big trade deal Canada already has with countries around the Pacific Ocean. Right now, the Senate is looking closely at Bill C-13 in a committee. This vote is a procedural step. It's about whether the members in the House of Commons agree to move forward with the bill. If someone stands up to say they want a recorded vote, it means they want everyone to officially say how they feel about the bill. If this law passes, it could mean more goods and services are traded between Canada and the UK. This could affect jobs and the prices of things we buy. It's important because it changes how Canada does business with another country.

This decision was made by "passed without counting" — no individual MP votes were counted.
