Bill C-12 is a proposed law that passed without a formal count of votes.

What They Voted On

Mr. Speaker, we ask that it be carried on division.

What This Vote Is Really About

This vote on Bill C-12 is about whether to approve a new law about border security and immigration. The government wants to make sure Canada's borders are safe and that the immigration system is fair. This new law would let the government collect more information about people coming into Canada. They say this will help them stop criminals and terrorists. It could also affect how easily people can enter Canada or become citizens. Citizens should care because this law could change how the government protects our borders and who is allowed to come to Canada. It's important to know how these changes might affect our safety and our values as a country. Since the bill received royal assent, it has now become law.

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